Lemon Cookies in Cookies(384)

How should I store packaged cookies?

If unopened, store packaged cookies in a cupboard or pantry. After opening, place the cookies in an airtight container or zippered bag. If you don't plan to eat opened cookies within three weeks, put them in the freezer for up to one year.

Can I put soft and crispy cookies together in the cookie jar?

Unless you want your crispy cookies to soften, don't put crispy cookies and soft cookies together. Instead, store them in separate cookie jars or airtight containers.

What can I do with leftover lemon cookies?

Add crunch to vanilla ice cream by crushing leftover lemon cookies and sprinkling them on top, or add crushed lemon cookies to melted almond bark and allow it to harden. For both desserts, make sure crushed cookies have some chunks and they're not crushed into crumbs. When you do crush lemon cookies into crumbs, use them to create a delicious pie crust. For fillings, think lemon meringue or vanilla cream.
