1. Absolutely! I started making mine last night. Just be sure to put in a tightly sealed container. GOOD baking and Merry Christmas
2. YES IT WILL
3. yea if you put them in a bag and seal them up then put them in the freezer, then unthaw.
4. KEEP THEM IN THE FRIDGE IN A AIR TIGHT CONTAINER MAKE THEM ON SUNDAY..
5. They should be fine. keep them in an air tight container.
6. Most of them will remain fresh. The brownie and any other cookie with butter will keep best in the refrigerator for a few days. However, your Rice Krispie Treats should be made the day before, they will get dry and hard no matter what you do. What I like to do is double the recipe for rice krispie bars and press them in the bottom of a 9X13 cake pan with a glass that has non-stick spray on the bottom of it. Let them sit at least an hour. Take a large cutting board and "WHAK!" flip it over and you'll get one big Rice Krispie Bar that can be cut into large squares easily with a large knife and then cut them again into triangles and wrap in Christmas Saran Wrap for a great effect.
7. Yes they will stay fresh as long as you store them properly. I make cookies every year and store them in airtight zip lock bags to keep them soft. For the brownies and krispy treats use an airtight container. I don't think you should store them in the fridge but rather in a cool dry place. ps... can I have some? :)
