Storage Tips

Keeping my cheese and herb biscuits fresh is super easy! Here’s how I do it. 😊

Short-Term Storage:
Once the biscuits cool down, I pop them in an airtight container.

They stay fresh on the counter for up to 2 days. This way, they’re always soft and tasty!

Refrigeration:
If I want to keep them longer, I wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in the fridge.

This keeps them good for about a week. Just reheat them and enjoy! 🔥

Freezing:
For those times I make a big batch, I freeze them.

First, I line them up on a baking sheet and freeze till solid. Then, I move them to a freezer-safe bag. ❄️

Reheating:
From frozen, I just pop them in the oven at 350°F for 10 minutes, and they come out just like fresh!

Having a snack ready anytime is great. Can’t wait to munch on them again! 🍪
