How to Freeze Oreos

Place the cookies in a single layer on a baking sheet and then pop them in the freezer for about an hour. This will help them freeze evenly and prevent them from sticking together.

The best way to portion your Oreos is by thinking about how you’ll use them in the future. This will prevent the consistency of Oreos from becoming dry and crumbly.

Be sure to label your airtight container of frozen oreos with the date. The shelf life of Oreos will stay for a longer period of time, up to 8 months, frozen.

Can You Freeze Oreos in the Original Packaging?

Yes, you can freeze Oreos in an unopened package. However, I would not recommend doing so because your package of cookies may not be air-tight leading to stale Oreos.

How to Thaw Frozen Oreo Cookies

When you’re ready to eat your cookies, simply remove them from the freezer and let them thaw at room temperature for 1-2 hours. When you freeze Oreos, they will become soft and chewy again when you let them thaw out.
