Question 10

How do you tell if Pumpkin Cookies is bad?

Accepted Answer

Determining if a pumpkin cookie has gone bad is relatively simple. If the cookies appear moldy, discolored, or have an off smell, they're likely spoiled. Another sign can be a change in texture — good pumpkin cookies should be moist and soft, not dry and hard. So if your cookie feels quite hard and stale, it's probably not safe to eat.

Question 11

Tips for storing Pumpkin Cookies to extend shelf life

Accepted Answer

• Store your pumpkin cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh and moist. Make sure the container is clean and dry prior to storing the cookies, as moisture can lead to mold growth.

• If storing the cookies in the refrigerator or freezer, wrap them individually in plastic wrap before putting them in the container. This prevents freezer burn and helps maintain their quality.

• If you do freeze your cookies, make sure to let them thaw at room temperature for a few hours before eating. This will keep their original texture and taste.
