This recipe can be made from your favorite "from scratch recipes" or you can use a convenient mix to whip these together.

I love being able to store slice and bake cookie dough in the freezer for quick treats or even use the dough itself as a gift for a friend or co-worker during the holidays.  If you want some more recipes for making slice and bake cookies in bulk for the holidays visit: Slice & Bake Part 1 and Slice & Bake Part 2.
Quick Cookie Recipes

Tonight I used 2 mixes from the store. This recipe makes 2 (10 inch) logs of slice & bake cookie dough, and I  had one roll of cookie dough in the freezer and the other baking in the oven for a late night munchie for teenagers in about 15 minutes. I highly recommend a large gallon of milk on hand for these cookies!

Ingredients:
1 pouch peanut butter cookie dough (I used Betty Crocker)
1 pouch Chocolate-Chocolate Chunk cookie dough (I used Betty Crocker)
(Eggs, Oil, & Water according to cookie package directions)

 Jan's Tip:  Know what my dough was missing? Since the chocolate pouch of dough had chocolate chunks in it, I should have thrown in a cup or so of peanut butter chips into the peanut butter dough!
