I've read lots of posts about freezing decorated NFSC, and it seems everyone agrees to keep the cookies in the container until they are completey thawed. How long does that usually take? Is it better to thaw at room temp or in fridge? One more question... how long before delivery is due would you take the cookies out of the freezer? I have 300 to make and I've never frozen cookies so any advise is greatly appreciated!

i was wondering about this too. here is a bump.

I thaw mine at room temp and usually take them out the night before I want to use them. It really doesn't take them that long to thaw, but I like to be sure they are all nice and dry. I have 10 doz in the freezer right now, all bagged, tied and labeled for a wedding on Thur, I will take them out Wed night.
