These cookies can be stored in an airtight container, at room temperature, and they will last up to 5 days. If you want to keep them fresh for longer, you can store them in the refrigerator for 7-10 days or freeze them for up to three months. When freezing, make sure to wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in an airtight container or freezer bag.

What can you substitute for butter when making these cookies?

Different colored sprinkles can be used for various holidays. For example, red and green sprinkles work well for Christmas, red & pink for Valentine’s Day, and orange and black for Halloween.
