Divide dough in eight 1 cup lots. Wrap each tightly in foil or plastic wrap. Freeze. Then place in a plastic bag until ready to use.
2. When ready to use, thaw dough just enough that you can shape or drop it. Place cookies about 2 inches apart on greased baking sheet and bake at 375~ for 10-15 minutes. Spread cookies on racks to cool.
