icebox cookie
Chilled dough rounds
Icebox cookies are slice-and-bake cookies made from dough that's shaped into a log, chilled in the refrigerator until firm, then sliced into rounds for baking.
The name dates from when refrigerators were called iceboxes.
The technique allows preparing dough ahead and baking fresh cookies on demand: She keeps icebox cookie dough ready for unexpected guests.
