Frozen Cookie Dough

This might be old news….but I was talking with a friend awhile ago about freezing your own cookie dough and she had never thought of doing it, so I thought I should post about it.

Do you buy frozen cookie dough at the store? Well, no more! You can mix up a batch of your favorite cookie dough at home and freeze the dough. Then you can have REAL homemade cookies at your convenience!

Homemade not only tastes better, but it is better for you (healthier than store bought anyway.) There are so many preservatives, lots of sodium, high fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated oils in store bought items such as cookie dough. Even if I can get store-bought cookie dough free with coupons I don’t buy it.

Sooo….mix up a batch of your favorite cookies. I have a favorite recipe for Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies. I doubled the batch, baked a couple dozen for us, then decided to freeze the rest.

I make cookie balls, place them on a large cookie sheet and then stick in the freezer. I usually leave them there for several hours so they can get hard.

After the cookie balls are frozen, put them into a Ziploc bag. I don’t use my Food Saver on these because I know we will want to get into them soon! 🙂 Now I have 60 cookie balls all ready to bake when I need or want some fresh cookies!

You can let them completely thaw before baking, but I don’t always do that because I am impatient. Sometimes they are only partly thawed when I bake. Depending on your cookie recipe and the ingredients, it might vary on the consistency of your baked cookie. I have noticed they turn out better appearance-wise when I let them thaw first. But they always taste the same no matter what. YUMMY! Just experiment and see what you like.

I only make cookie balls out of convenience for myself later. I also freeze cookie dough in logs. I just shape the dough into a long log and wrap in saran wrap and then in foil. Then we can slice off the dough as we need it. I just prefer the cookie balls. I think they are easier and I can thaw just what I need instead of the whole log.

I haven’t tried freezing very many types of cookie dough, so I am not sure if cookies like Snickerdoodles would freeze well or not. I try not to keep stuff like this always around as my kids and hubby tend to sneak it. 🙂 And if you don’t want to freeze the cookie dough then try freezing the cookies already baked! That usually works well also.

Have you done this before? What has worked for you?

Making the Most of Your Coupons

If you are starting to accumulate lots of coupons you might be wondering the best way to use them. Just heading out to the grocery store and using your .35 cent coupon on tuna fish is not the best way to utilize your coupon. If you know how to use your coupons you can make your money stretch farther than you thought possible!


1. Wait to use your coupons. Don’t use them right away. Wait closer to the expiration date for a good sale. For example, take a $1/1 Colgate toothpaste coupon. When Walgreens, Rite Aid, CVS, Albertson’s or your local store has them on sale, THEN use the coupon on the sale price. many times these stores will have toothpaste on sale for $1, then you could get the toothpaste for free! Or when Walgreens offers Register Rewards on the toothpaste you can actually come out ahead when you use your coupon on the sale price, then get back a RR for the full purchase price!

2. Combine B1G1 free coupons with a similar sale. Let’s say that Walgreens is having a sale on their Colgate toothpaste, B1G1 free. The sale price is $3.99 each. But let’s say you also have a coupon for a B1G1 free tube of Colgate. Use that coupon you have with the sale of B1G1 free and you will come away with two free tubes!

Another example. The sale at Rite Aid awhile ago. The Herbal Essences shampoo/conditioners/stylers were B1G1 free. I used the following coupon with it and came away with getting both items free! Only pay sales tax.

Herbal Essences Styler FREE when you buy any Herbal Essences Shampoo, Conditioner or Styler(11-30-09) PG-10/11

Here is how it works: Buy one shampoo or conditioner or styler. Get another free. But when you use the above mentioned coupon with it, the one you bought is also free! (as long as one was a styler). Make sense?

3. Combine your coupons with current rebates available. This is one of the main ways I have gotten ahead over the years. The Kraft rebate at Albertson’s last August is a good example. Kraft was offering a $20 rebate for purchasing certain items. I combined the sale prices at Albertson’s on those items with current coupons I had, which was $7 worth. I spent $14 plus tax out of pocket and got my $20 rebate back!

Sometimes a rebate offer will specify that the rebate is after coupons, but not usually. In the 8 years I have been doing coupons and rebates I have only seen that a couple of times.

4. Use manufacturer coupons with store coupons on the same product. Target, Fred Meyer & Walgreens are the stores in my area I do this at. These stores offer store coupons in their weekly ads or in their monthly coupon booklets. Many times there are manufacturer coupons (from the Sunday paper or printable coupons) that are for the same item. You can use these two coupons together!

For example, let’s say that you want to purchase Garnier shampoo at Walgreens for $3.99. Walgreens has a store coupon for $2/1. You also have a manufacturer coupon from the Sunday paper for $1/1. Use them together to get the shampoo for .99 cents.

5. Use your cents-off coupons to get free items. Did you know you can get many free things with regular cent-off coupons? You can! One way to do this is by purchasing trial size items. If you have a $1/1 coupon for Tide, use it on the .99 trial size. Just make sure you read the coupon to make sure it doesn’t mention that trial sizes are excluded. Many stores will apply the overage to your total as well! Walmart usually does. Target would adjust the coupon down to .99.

How do you make the most of your coupons?
