This tip works perfectly with any of our Choc Chip Cookie Baking Mix, this tip is an absolute game-changer. But also if you have purchased a cookie from a cafe etc do this, trust me they will taste better! 

We all love cookies fresh out of the oven. They’re soft, warm, and loaded with gooey, melty goodness. But did you know you can recreate that same “freshly baked” taste and texture in just 20 seconds?

Let’s dive into this easy (and very underrated) baking tip that every cookie lover needs to know.


Why Reheating Cookies Works Wonders

Reheating your cookies isn’t just about making them warm, it actually revives them & makes them taste fresher. 

Whether your cookies have been sitting out for a day or stored in a container, a quick heat-up in the microwave helps:

  • Bring back that just-baked softness

  • Warm any choc chips slightly

  • Freshen up the texture and flavour

  • Make them feel like they just came out of the oven

We even do this with brownies and other baked goodies too. Trust us it makes a big difference. And who doesn't love a warm cookie! 

How to Reheat Cookies in the Microwave (The Right Way)

Here’s exactly what to do to bring your cookies back to life:

🍪 Place your cookie on a microwave-safe plate.
🍪 Heat in the microwave for 10–20 seconds depending on the size.
  → For smaller cookies, start with 10 seconds.
  → For larger cookies, start with 15 seconds and add more if needed.
🍪 Check after 15 seconds, if it’s not warm enough, add another 5 seconds.
🍪 Be careful not to overheat them, you want warm, not boiling hot.

Pro Tip: It’s always better to start slow. You can microwave for longer, but you can’t undo over heated cookies.
