WEEK OF TREATS – DAY 2
I’m giving a few of these Cookie Dough Log Rolls to neighbors as gifts this Holiday. You can give yummy homemade cookies, but don’t have to bake them right away. They’re a perfect treat for on the go or as a midnight snack too. With these dough rolls, you can have cookies any time you want!
Supplies for Cookie Log Rolls:
- cookie dough – your favorite kind
- wax paper
- tin foil
- baking instructions written out
- ribbon
Mix up a batch of your favorite cookie dough. Shape into a log roll. Wrap in wax paper and tin foil. Then give to a cookie lover with the instructions to bake them.
They can be put in the fridge for a few days or frozen to pull out and bake up later. Yum! Homemade cookies anytime!

What a great idea. Something I would love to receive and offer.
Love it! I have several older people on my list with arthritic hands and baking is hard for them, this is perfect. Thanks Marie!
Hey, that’s a super-dee-duper idea! It would be great for families with kids! To give more than one at a time to the same person, you could probably slide them into a decorated wine gift bag…. or a brown paper bottle bag (from the wine shop)… Fun!
This is a great idea! I think everyone would love to get this gift!
Why have I never thought of this? What a great idea!
this is fantastic idea…. I might be doing the same thing for some of my neighbors.
Great idea Marie! I will have to do this for some of my neighbors!
Also, if you are using this for neighbor gifts for Christmas, you could attach the saying, “Thought you could use a little extra dough for Christmas.”
Awesome idea! I like this so much more than the gifts in a jar. These would be great gifts given alone or in a basket with some gourmet coffee or hot cocoa mix.
I’d better get busy….I have a whole list of people to make these for!
what an absolutley FANTASTIC idea – brava!
oh my gosh – this is such a great idea!! I am so going to do this! Thanks.
Marie,
That is a great gift anytime of the year. I want someone to leave this treat on my door step!
I am so using this idea. Thanks! It is a fantastic idea.
What a really really fab idea!
Stacey – LOVE that saying. We could all use a little dough! Thanks for sharing.
What a fabulous idea! Love it, love it, love it!
Great Idea!
Just found your blog. What an easy, but very tasty idea. Thanks for sharing. This is going to be our neighbor gift this year. Hooray!
These remind me of the fudge logs of yesteryear. I loved getting those from you at Christmastime.
I do this, too! I spiced it up with halfies. I make one log of oatmeal cookies and one log of choco-chip, then after a lil bit of fridge time I slice ‘em lengthwise and stick the opposites together so it’s a MIXED cookie log. People LOVE it….and I love making people smile….
thanks for your blog . It is AWESOME. I am going to add you to my linkage….
OK, this is truly one of the best ideas I’ve seen so far! We have a couple of new neighbors that have very small children. I remember those days of having no extra time, so this would be a perfect gift for them. Thanks for sharing! :)
Hey! If anyone reads this…I had a quick question…I want to do this and mail it someone, but b/c there are eggs in cookie dough, can you mail it? does it need to be refrigerated? or would the cooking in the oven kill any problems?
thanks,

Josh – Good question. I’m sure you could call the post office and they’d let you know if or how to send food. I do freeze mine, so maybe that would help it last. OR just make a dough that doesn’t use eggs.
Found you via 30days post — thanks for this brilliant idea!
I LOVE this idea!
This looks great! And could you also share what a fudge log is??? THAT sounds tasty too! Great idea, thank you for sharing!
This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks so much.
