Home baked cookies should be allowed to thoroughly cool, then packed between sheets of waxed paper in an air tight container.

Your blog is just what I was searching for. You have no idea how long I have
been questioning the same exact thing! I am so glad that I am
no longer apart.

Store crisp cookies in an airtight container, not a cookie jar. You can place absorbent paper between the layers of crisp cookies to help keep them crisp.

Store soft cookies in a container that is not completely airtight, such as a cookie jar. Use waxed paper between the cookies to keep them from sticking together. Place a piece of fresh bread in the cookie jar and the cookies will absorb the moisture from the bread.
