Store leftover snickerdoodle cheesecake bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days.For longer storage, consider freezing the bars. Let them cool completely, then either freeze the uncut bars or cut them into individual slices before freezing. Wrap the bars or slices tightly in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil to prevent freezer burn. Store them in a freezer bag or container for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
