I purchased the M&M cookies and the peanut butter cookies from an elementary school fund raiser in the fall. It is now March and I decided to make these cookies. In the past when I have ordered this type of product from a school fund raiser the cookie mix has been dry and you add the necessary ingredients, so I stored them as if they were a dry mix. When I got ready to make the cookies this weekend I opened the container and to my surprise the cookies are ready made and just need to be baked! There is NOTHING on the OUTSIDE of the container that tells you they need to be FROZEN until ready to bake! Needless to say I tossed BOTH containers since they had sat in the cupboard for 4 to 5 months! The cookies may be good, I have no idea and was not going to take the chance of making them and letting my family eat them. There should be something on the outside of the container to tell you they must be frozen until ready to bake, like KEEP FROZEN UNTIL READY TO BAKE!!!!!
