I just received my coffee chocolate chunks from my last order and was wondering what I would do with them first, and lo and behold chocolate heaven! I know what the kids and I will be making tomorrow. However if they eat as many as I know they will, I think they may have some trouble sleeping with all that chocolate and coffee! I am so excited to try these. I also have a question about freezing cookie dough. Several of the recipes I will be making for the holidays are rolled in granulated or sparkling sugar before baking. If I want to freeze the unbaked dough would I roll in the toppings before baking? If not do I need to thaw the dough, roll and then bake? I was hoping to have a bunch of raw cookie balls waiting in the freezer for Christmas baking. Thank you for always answering any questions, it makes hectic holiday baking much more enjoyable! Hi Lish, Because of the moisture in the cookie dough, if you roll in sugar before freezing, most of the sugar will be absorbed during freezing and not much will be left for baking. We'd suggest rolling after freezing. You don't need to thaw the dough much, just enough to have a moist outer layer for the sugar to stick to. Best, ~ MaryJane
