freezing does not necessarily kill germs. but baking those cookies in a hot oven certainly can. while germs can remain viable on certain objects for hours or even days i would not think that your hard work making cookies would put others at risk. you can send them to me. i'll eat 'em.
baked cookies during day/evening. came down with stomach bug/fever later in same evening. are cookies safe to eat? . i plan to freeze the cookies until christmas. but i am reading that freezing does not kill germs. don't want to throw away all of my work but don't want to get anyone else sick. .
