Tasty Tuesday: Summertime Tip

Toll-house cookie dough base w/ chocolate chips & peanut butter chips

This week's Tasty Tuesday has NOTHING to do with a new recipe, but instead just a little ol tip from me. Perhaps you haven't thought to do this before, or maybe you have done it but forgotten how nice it is to have a "back up" plan ready to go in the blink of an eye.

I don't know about where you live, but my neighborhood is totally full of kids which I love, but sometimes can catch you off guard for something to feed the crew. Sometimes I have to remember to get a bag of apples and just go out there with waterbottles and apples and share away ~ other times they run in BEGGING for something!

Over the weekend I did a double batch of our favorite cookie dough and decided this morning to tend to it and prep it to be used two other times. Most likely on a Saturday or some midweek day in the summer. We tend to do go through lots of snacks and treats in the summer, let alone with just having three teens in the house!

Here is what I did:
1. Put cookie dough in a LONG tube on Cling Wrap.



















2. Roll into a log.



















3. Slice log in 1/2



















4. Wrap each half in wax paper.



































5. Wrap in foil.



































6. Place in gallon size freezer bag.

Allow to defrost or with a sharp knife cut through frozen dough and bake off at 375 for about 12 minutes or until done.
