Tips for Making Stuffed Cookies
How Do I Store These Pumpkin Spice Cookies?
When you are storing these pumpkin spice cookies, you will want to make sure to store them away from the air. Storing the cookies in an airtight container or in a freezer bag is the best way to store these cookies. You can store them at room temperature or in the refrigerator. I prefer storing them on a counter in a freezer bag because I prefer my cookies to not be cold. Cookies will last about a week at room temperature. If you do not think you can finish the cookies before they spoil, you can also freeze the cookies.
How to Freeze Pumpkin Cookies
When you have baked cookies that you will not be able to finish, you can freeze the cookies to prevent them from spoiling. Once the cookies have cooled, you can move the cookies to a freezer bag or airtight container. I prefer to freeze the cookies in a single layer first on a cookie sheet or plate. Once the cookies are frozen, you can move them to the same container or freezer bag. This will prevent them from freezing together which makes it easier to take only a few cookies out at a time. This prevents you from having too many cookies again and having to worry about the new thawed cookies from spoiling.
Variations to Rolo Cookies
If you love the idea of a stuffed cookie with Rolos, but do not want to have pumpkin cookies, you can recreate this cookie using chocolate chip cookie dough or peanut butter cookie dough, or whatever your favorite cookie dough is. This recipe is versatile to use as a starting point.
You can also add more things to this recipe. You can add sea salt on top of the Rolo before adding the top of the cookie, or add the salt to the top layer of the pumpkin cookie dough. Sea salt and caramel go great together and I have always loved the way the salt brings out the flavor of baked goods.
