In reply to Lora. Thank you so much for trying my recipe, Lora! I'm so glad you've enjoyed them so much! You shouldn't have any issues freezing this dough. :)

I’ve made this a few times and absolutely love it! I’m wondering, can you freeze the dough already rolled in balls? Before you put topping on of course! Just the cookie dough itself pre rolled into balls! Thank you!

In reply to Sam Merritt. I used individual cellophane bags from Amazon once they had set so I could stack them in a Tupperware and it worked well.

A little bit of work but such a great recipe. I bring cookies for my hockey team the week after every win. These were the last for the season and a huge hit.

In reply to denise. Hi Denise! The butter bits on top will crust like a firmer buttercream, they may get a little smashed down, but personally I would do it and just separate the layers with wax paper. :)

I’m so excited to try these, but am curious can you stack them so I can gift them in a bag?

In reply to Sam Merritt. How will I substitute properly?

In reply to Beginner. While they will turn out with all purpose flour, the cookies won't be quite as soft, tender, and delicate. Make sure to substitute it properly. :)

I want to try this recipe out but I was wondering if it’ll still turn out okay with all purpose flour and maple syrup instead because my father won’t buy the other ingredients? I want to make it for my brothers and they love cookies and french toast so what an amazing combination recipe!

Hi Sam! Everyone loved these cookies. They really did taste like French toast!! My husband asked where this recipe came from, and I said “Sugar Spun”…. his response was…. “Oh, they will be good then”. Love all your recipes, always watch YouTube to see what your going to post next. I’ve made tons of your recipes and will continue to. Thanks so much!!

I love your recipes. I have made a lot being I like the way you write it with the ingredients in the instructions. I am going to make these for Christmas being I like to give family and friends new cookies that they have not ever had. Keep your new recipes coming.

To Sam: I’m always excited to try a new cookie recipe, especially yours. These are wonderful!

To other bakers: As is, this recipe is more like coffee cake than French toast. Next time I’ll add more maple and cinnamon. At first I thought the dough would be too soft, but it was just right after an hour in the fridge. 3 tablespoons might seem like too much for one cookie, but they baked up perfectly in 13 minutes and are a nice decadent size. The ‘butter’ is a delightful touch and is worth the extra dishes. I cut the recipe in half and got about a dozen cookies.
