Storage & Make-Ahead Notes
The prepared dry mix can be covered and stored in a cool, dry place for short-term use, making it convenient for quick holiday baking. Keeping the mixture well sealed prevents moisture from affecting the leavening agents and preserves the freshness of the flour.
When ready to use, gently whisk the dry ingredients once more before incorporating them into the rest of the cookie dough. This guarantees even distribution and helps maintain the soft, buttery texture that defines these Christmas cookies.
