First, allow your cookies to cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container. Unless you’ve added a buttercream-type frosting, they are best stored at room temperature.
If you need to stack multiple layers of cookies in the container, place a sheet of parchment paper or wax paper between each layer. This prevents the cookies from sticking together and preserves their texture.
Why Do My Cake Mix Cookies Fall Apart?
One reason your cookies may crumble could be that they are underbaked. Since cooking times may vary, you may need to add a couple more minutes. They’re typically done when the edges turn golden brown and the centers are set.
Another reason could be that you moved the cookies before they’d cooled enough. Make sure you allow them to cool for a few minutes on your baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Can I Freeze Cake Mix Cookie Dough?
Unless the recipe says otherwise, you can freeze cake mix cookie dough for up to a couple of months. To do so, it’s best if you first shape the dough into individual cookie portions, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and freeze until solid.
Once frozen, transfer the dough portions to a freezer-safe bag or container. Then simply thaw the desired amount of dough and bake as directed to make cake mix cookies whenever the mood hits you!
