Has anyone here froze these cookies before? I've made them several times, but cut out cookies are very time consuming, and I wanted to make some next weekend, and save them for the following weekend in the freezer. I just want to make sure that they hold up nice before i go through all the trouble.
I have frozen them after they were baked and decorated and they taste just fine! (I only froze them for about one week). These cookies still taste good unfrozen after 2 weeks or so (if wrapped well). I haven't kept them longer than that....
Thanks for your help!
ChristianD, how many cookies really depends on the size of your cookie cutter and how thick you roll them out. A medium size cutter at about 1/4" you might get 5-6 dozen. I'm not sure though, the past few times I've made the recipe I used several different size cutters. Maybe someone else on here has a better idea of the yield. Or else, next weekend when i make the cookies, I'm going to be using all the same cutter, so I'll let you know how many I get!

The recipe is small, if you make a whole recipe of No Fail Sugar Cookies, you may need to 4-6x the icing recipe depending on the amount of detail you use on your cookies.
You say depending on detail. Can you pipe borders with this or is it too runny?
I need to go to the store to get everything. Making cookies for a fund raiser for school.
Thanks for all the info.

Boofycakes - May I ask what you used to ice your heart cookies on your site? They look so shiney and good.
Thanks so much.
gdlgdl- Thanks, the Pez groom's cake was for my brother's wedding last October. There is something about Pez in my family. we're a bunch of weirdos 
hummingbird59- The frosting as is, is kinda stiff. I add a little corn syrup at a time until the frosting is still stiff, but loose enough that I can squeeze through a small round tip. I use this to outline my cookies and do the detail work. once the icing is set, I thin down the rest of the icing with a little milk. I then use this thin icing to fill in the cookie design! Let me know if something doesnt make sense. sometimes I dont explain things very well.
Mickeebabe- The icing I've used on all of my cookies in my photos is
