We're glad you enjoyed this article, Brooke! Yes, freezing cookie dough does have similar effects. Most cookie dough freezes quite well! Drop cookies do the best, while roll-out cookies can be a bit finicky. Some cookies can be baked right from the freezer while others need about 20 minutes at room temperature to defrost a bit before baking so they spread slightly while baking. I'd recommend baking one or two right from the freezer the first time you make a recipe and see how it goes. Sometimes cookies will stay taller, which is great if that's what you're looking for but if you want them to spread out a bit you can defrost the dough slightly before baking. We hope this can help and happy baking!
