Walnut Refrigerator Cookies

"My friend, Carolyn, brought these cookies into the quilt shop where I work and I begged her for the recipe. This is a delicious, fast refrigerator cookie that has just the right amount of sweetness. I made a batch at my first opportunity and my hubby loved them as much as I did, especially with a hot cup of coffee. The rolls of dough would be great to put in the freezer too, so you could have these little gems whenever you want too."

Questions & Replies

  1. In the walnut refrigerator cookie recipe, can you freeze the dough before baking, (in the long rolls)? If so, for how long will it keep in the freezer? this is if you want to make a few rolls to save for later, to just unfreeze & bake.
