How to Serve Crumbl Cookies

Crumbl Cookies are best enjoyed warm. You can serve them with a glass of milk, a scoop of ice cream, or even alongside your favorite coffee or tea. They are great for sharing, so place them on a tray and let everyone grab their favorite flavor!

How to Store Crumbl Cookies

To keep your Crumbl Cookies fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They should stay good for about a week. If you want to enjoy them later, you can also freeze them. Just wrap each cookie individually, and they can last in the freezer for up to three months. Defrost them at room temperature when you’re ready to enjoy!

Tips to Make Crumbl Cookies

  • Make sure your butter is soft but not melted; this helps create a fluffy texture.
  • Don’t overmix the dough; mixing until just combined keeps the cookies soft.
  • Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor.
  • Feel free to experiment with mix-ins, like nuts or dried fruit, to create your unique cookie.

Variation

You can easily create different flavor profiles for these cookies. Try adding peanut butter chips for a nutty twist, or incorporate dried fruits like cranberries or raisins. Adjusting the mix-ins allows you to enjoy a new version of Crumbl Cookies every time!

FAQs

1. Can I make Crumbl Cookies ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough in advance. Chill it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking.

2. Can I use margarine instead of butter?
While margarine can be used, it may affect the flavor and texture of the cookies. Butter is recommended for the best results.

3. How do I know when the cookies are done?
The cookies should be lightly golden at the edges. They will continue to cook slightly after being removed from the oven, so don’t worry if they seem a bit soft in the center!
