Lake Front Cookies

The dough can be made up to 2 days ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Let it sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before scooping, as it will stiffen when chilled. Baked cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, placing parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking. The molasses keeps these cookies moist and chewy. For longer storage, freeze baked cookies in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
