I love a chocolate dessert. It’s true. Over the years I’ve shared so of my favorite recipes for chocolate desserts and cookies here with y’all. Some are delicious from scratch cookies like these Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip cookies, others are cake mix hacks like these Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies. I also have a great recipe for Old Fashioned Chocolate Pie that is out of this world!

Storage: 

Room Temperature: Store in an air tight container or zip top bag on the counter for up to five days. 

Refrigerator: There is not need to store these cookies in the fridge. If you do decide to keep them cold I recommend a tightly sealed container to help prevent the cookies from becoming dry and crumbly.

Freezer: Cool cookies completely then transfer into a freezer safe zip top bag. Place in the freezer for up to three months. 

Thawing: Transfer cookies to refrigerator overnight to thaw.

Happy Cooking Y’all!
