Storing and Freezing Tips
To keep your cookies fresh for as long as possible, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They can last up to a week, but we doubt they'll last that long! If you want to enjoy them later, consider freezing the dough. Simply scoop the dough onto a baking sheet and freeze until solid, then transfer to a zip-top bag. You can bake fresh cookies anytime by popping the frozen dough directly into the oven—no thawing required!
For baked cookies, you can also freeze them for up to three months. Just make sure to wrap them tightly to prevent freezer burn. When you're ready to enjoy them, let them thaw at room temperature or reheat them in the oven for a few minutes to regain their lovely texture. With these simple storage tips, you can savor the deliciousness of your Crumbl copycats whenever the craving strikes.

Why Choose Copycat Recipes?
Copycat recipes bring the flavors of your favorite store-bought treats right into your kitchen. Not only do you get the satisfaction of baking, but you can also control the ingredients and customize the flavors to your liking. For instance, if you prefer darker chocolate, you can easily swap in dark chocolate chips for a richer taste. This approach not only makes your baking more enjoyable but also healthier, as you can avoid preservatives and artificial flavors.
Additionally, these recipes allow you to recreate the popular Crumbl experience without having to leave your home. You can experiment and tweak the recipes to create your own signature cookie, making the baking experience even more personal and fun. Plus, you can bake as many cookies as you want without breaking the bank!
Troubleshooting Common Issues
If you find that your cookies are spreading too much during baking, it might be due to the butter being too warm. Make sure to soften your butter at room temperature, but it shouldn't be melted. If you encounter this issue, try chilling the dough for about 30 minutes before baking. This helps the cookies maintain their shape and gives them a thicker, chewier consistency.
Another common issue is cookies turning out too dry or crumbly. This can happen if you over-measure the flour. Always use the spoon-and-level method to measure your flour accurately. Fluff the flour in the container, spoon it into your measuring cup, and level it off with a knife for the best results. With these tips in hand, you'll be well on your way to baking the perfect Crumbl cookie copycats every time.
