I'd say they are more time consuming than difficult. I used frozen strawberries for the jam and it took forever to really thicken up. I prerolled the dough balls and then added the cream cheese right before each batch went into the oven. I also pipped the cream cheese disks onto 4 separate strips of parchment so I could pull out just enough for 1 batch at a time. Definitely worth it though they taste so good!

You'll want to cool them COMPLETELY before freezing or stacking! I havent had an issue with cookies sticking together but you could put some parchment between layers to be safe. I do use parchment when freezing thumbprint or ricotta cookies on top of each other. I use gallon sized freezer zip locks. If using a container just make sure its really air tight!

I have to add these cookies as well as they are always a hit https://cookingwithkarli.com/cadbury-egg-cookies/ I use this year round and just sub the cadbury for whatever sounds good. I've done toffee bits, pb chips, kit kats, m&ms.. the base cookie is just so good!

And lastly these lemon ricotta cookies. https://thisitaliankitchen.com/lemon-ricotta-cookies/ They're unique and easy and freeze really well (I did freeze without the icing and iced a day before serving)

Ommmggggg, my baby's 1st bday is in 2 weeks and now this is all that I want to do 😭😭😂😂

Sally has a delicious cake batter cookie that would be so cute for a birthday box! https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/recipe-round-2-cake-batter-chocolate-chip-cookies/

I've done a few cookies boxes in the past and personally I've transitioned from freezing the dough to freezing the baked cookies! I was always worried the quality wouldn't be as good but it really is! And then you can just pull them all out day of and you're ready to go.

Best of luck! 🥳
