Once the dough is frozen, the cookie dough balls can be tossed together into one freezer bag and into the freezer.

Make Ahead Cookies
When you make cookie dough, double the batch and freeze some. Rather than freezing a large batch of cookie dough (this would take some time to thaw), I prefer to freeze the individual cookie scoops. Yesterday I made a double batch of chocolate chip cookie dough. While some scoops were in the oven baking, some were flash freezing in the freezer. I just placed wax paper on a cookie sheet and scooped the dough onto it and placed it in the freezer for 15 - 20 minutes.
These can be thawed and baked individually or in a batch.
