How to Freeze Your Large Family Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
When you want to make the Large Family Double Chocolate Chip Cookies for a special event with your loved ones, you can prepare the dough weeks or months ahead of time. Rather than baking the cookies in advance, you can prepare the cookie dough and freeze it until you are ready to make fresh, hot cookies.
You might want to make the dough, bake half of it in the oven right away, and save the other half for a later time. It is always good to have some frozen dough available for the holiday season. When freezing the dough, prepare your cookie batter as you usually would. Scoop the batter out of the bowl and onto a sheet of waxed paper and place the sheet with the cookie dough into the freezer.
Check the cookie dough periodically to see when it finally freezes. Once frozen, put it in an airtight container and keep it in the freezer for as long as six months before baking. You can leave the cookie dough in the freezer for up to six months before you would need to remove it and bake the cookies.
Fun Extras to Add to the Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
The Large Family Double Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe is perfect. If you follow it, you can make the most delicious chocolatey cookies. However, if you want to add a few extras to these cookies, you can do so.
There are a few ingredients that will taste great when added to the freshly prepared cookie dough, including macadamia nuts, chopped peanuts, and sprinkles. You can add anything that you believe will taste good with the double chocolate taste of these cookies.

Ingredients
1 cup butter, softened
1 ½ cup white sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
⅔ cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Using a whisk, stir together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla, beating for an additional 2 minutes.
-
Slowly add in the flour mixture and mix until well blended.
-
Fold the chocolate chips into the batter.
-
Using a cookie scoop, portion the dough and drop on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the edges are set. Remove the cookies from the oven but allow the cookies to rest for about 2 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
To make ahead and freeze:
-
Prepare the cookie dough as directed. Scoop into portions and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or waxed paper.
-
Place the baking sheet in the freezer until the cookie dough balls are frozen. Then, transfer the cookie dough to an airtight freezer container.
-
Store cookie dough in the freezer for up to 6 months.
-
To bake these cookies from the freezer follow the baking directions above! You can bake the cookies from frozen, but they will need a few more minutes added to the baking time if you chose. I like to defost the cookie dough beforehand and bake as directed.
