Store cookie dough. Cover and store the dough in the fridge for 1-2 days before baking. For longer storage:Log shape. Form into a log shape, wrap it with plastic wrap and again with foil, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw before shaping and baking.
Dough ball. Form the cookie dough balls, place them on a baking sheet, and freeze for a couple of hours or until the dough is solid then transfer them to a freezer-safe Ziploc.
When freezing cookie dough, save the M&M's (for the tops) to add just before baking.
