Yes! These cookies are perfect to make ahead and freeze for any occasion! In order to freeze, allow cookies to cool fully at room temperature and then place in a freezer safe ziplock bag or container.
To thaw these cookies, remove them from the freezer to allow to come to room temperature a few hours before consuming.
If you are just reheating a few at a time, you can also use a toaster oven or microwave to thaw quickly.
