How long do ricotta cookies stay fresh?

Ricotta cookies, like most cookies, can stay fresh for up to 3-5 days at room temperature in an airtight container.

Here are some tips for maximizing their freshness:

* Store in an airtight container: This prevents them from drying out and becoming stale.

* Keep them at room temperature: Exposure to cold temperatures can cause them to become hard and brittle.

* Avoid storing them near strong smells: Ricotta cookies are absorbent, so they can pick up flavors from other foods.

* Freeze for longer storage: You can freeze ricotta cookies for up to 3 months. Thaw them at room temperature for a few hours before enjoying.

Remember, these are just general guidelines. The actual shelf life of your cookies will depend on the specific recipe and the quality of the ingredients.
