How do I store baked cookies?

Properly storing baked cookies is paramount in maintaining their texture, flavor, and moisture content. Firstly, ensure that the cookies have completely cooled down before transferring them into a storage container, as enclosed warm air can cause them to become soft and soggy.

Additionally, keep cookies in an airtight container or resealable bag, as exposure to air can cause them to dry out and become stale quickly.

An ideal location to store baked cookies would be in a cool, dry spot away from sunlight, as heat and humidity can also result in cookies losing their crispness and freshness.

When storing different types of cookies together, separating them with layers of parchment paper or wax paper is best to avoid cross-contamination of flavors and textures.

One of the most iconic Halloween cookie toppings is undoubtedly orange and black sprinkles. These colorful adornments lend a festive touch to any cookie.

Another popular choice is candy eyes, which can turn regular cookies into creepy-crawly treats. Chocolate chips in the shape of bats or other spooky creatures are another classic option. And for a more sophisticated touch, consider piping royal icing in Halloween-themed designs.

No matter which toppings you choose, have fun and embrace the holiday spirit with your delicious creations.
