Notes

  • To freeze, let them cool completely first, then freeze with layers of wax paper between them so they don’t stick together.
  • Peanut butterfinger cookies will keep well in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature and enjoy!
  • If stored at room temperature in an airtight container, the cookies keep well for about a week. . . but in my house they tend to disappear much more quickly than that.
