COOKIE TIPS VI

If you are going to make cookies to mail, make sure that you select a recipe that will transport well. Moist Fruit Filled, Drop, and Bar cookies will travel the best.

Place the flat sides of 2 cookies (bottoms) together. Wrap the cookies together with aluminum foil or plastic wrap. Place the packets of cookies into storage containers or small boxes before placing in box for shipping.

Use Hot Air Popcorn, bubble wrap or newspaper between the containers in the box to cushion.

If shipping cookies with icing, place a piece of waxed paper between the icing and the wrap to prevent the icing from sticking.

The recipient will appreciate all of the effort with fresh homemade cookies, not crumbs!
