- How do you get the design in your Pillsbury® Ready-To-Bake cookies?

- Are there high altitude directions for your cookies?
No, there are no changes for baking our cookies at high altitudes.
- Can I microwave the dough?
No. The uneven heat of a microwave prevents the dough from browning and baking evenly.
- Can I bake these cookies in a toaster oven?
No, we don't recommend it. A toaster oven's small size often results in uneven heating and the cookies may burn.
- Can I bake these cookies in a convection oven?
Yes! Simply follow the manufacturer's guidelines provided with your convection oven.
- Do I need to preheat the oven?
Yes, preheat the oven for 10 minutes before baking. This important step will help the cookies bake evenly.
- Can I freeze the unbaked dough?
Our cookie dough may be frozen up to two months if it is placed in the freezer before the "use-by" date printed on the package. To thaw, we recommend placing it in the refrigerator overnight.
- Can I freeze the baked cookies?
Yes, most cookies and bars freeze well for up to six months. Frosted cookies can be stored for up to two months.
For best results:
• Your freezer should be at 0 degrees F. or colder.
• Freeze each kind of cookie separately to keep the flavors from mixing.
• Place the cookies in plastic bags, metal tins or plastic freezer containers.
• If you're planning to frost and decorate the cookies, freeze them unfrosted and then frost and decorate them just before serving.
• Label the container with the name of the cookies and the date they were frozen.
- What is the best way to store baked cookies?
• Cool cookies thoroughly before storing them.
• Store each kind of cookie separately to keep the flavors from mixing.
• In dry weather, store crisp cookies in a container with a loose-fitting lid. If the weather's humid, use a container that closes tightly.
• Store soft cookies in a container with a tight-fitting cover.
• Layer frosted cookies in containers after the frosting has set. Separate the layers of cookies with a sheet of waxed paper so the cookies don't stick together.
