Not true.....for the holidays, I make 20 to 23 different kinds of
cookies, and seal them up in Tupperware and Rubbermaid containers and
keep them in a cool place for two weeks, or more, and they stay the same
texture as when I first store them away, but I've always had this
trouble with chocolate chip cookies, and have tried several recipes over
the years, hoping to find one that didn't soften in a matter of hours.
