I have used this "mix, roll, cut and freeze" technique for many years. The first was in 1977, when we had just moved into a fixer-upper home just before the holidays and I wanted to be sure I had Christmas cookies hot from the oven to bake and decorate with our daughter! At that time, I was unaware of parchment paper, so I just froze the cookies directly on my pans. When frozen, I took the pans out one at a time, scooped up the cookies with a spatula, put them into zip-top bags, and popped the bags back into the freezer. Then I was ready to bake and decorate after our move.
Since I discovered parchment paper, however, this is a much simpler process! Your half-parchment sheets fit my pans perfectly, and work great. Thanks, KA, for another great product!
