Can you cook Otis spunkmeyer frozen cookie dough in the microwave?

Here's why:

* Uneven cooking: Microwaves heat unevenly, resulting in a gooey, undercooked center and a dry, burnt exterior.

* Food safety: Microwaving frozen cookie dough may not reach a high enough temperature to kill harmful bacteria like Salmonella.

* Texture: Microwaving will lead to a rubbery, dense cookie instead of the soft, chewy texture you get from baking.

Always follow the cooking instructions on the package. Otis Spunkmeyer cookie dough is designed to be baked in the oven for the best results.
