Pre-baked frozen cookies can be left out to defrost at room temperature.

Frozen cookie dough may or may not need to be thawed at all depending on the type of cookie you're baking. 'Rolled and Sliced' or 'Freezer' cookies are meant to be sliced and baked right from the freezer. You might give the dough 5 or 10 minutes to defrost at room temperature for easier slicing, but no more than that is really needed.

Frozen drop cookies, like oatmeal or chocolate chip, that have already been formed into 'drops' don't really need defrosting either, but you may have to adjust your baking time and temperature. Generally I reduce my temperature by 25 degrees and bake 3 - 7 minutes longer with much success. Keep an eye on them and remove from oven when the tops of the cookies are no longer glossy.

Frozen cookie dough sold in buckets generally have defrosting directions on the label, but 30 - 45 minutes at room temperature should soften the dough sufficiently to scoop onto baking sheet. Bake according to manufacturer's suggestion.

How do you repair an AC compressor freeze?

That depends? Is the compressor freezing? Or is the whole condensor freezing? Well any way if the compressor is freezing try adding more refrigerant or put a crank case heater band on it. If the whole condensor is freezing (assuming it is a heat pump) throw it into cool for 10 minutes to 20 minutes or until condenser is unfrozen then call a tech and ask them to come and repair it cause your defrost board or defrost thermostat is bad.

Cut cookies out before or after baking?

Cut them out before. That way you can roll out the extra dough and get more cookies, and the cookies will also not crumble that way.
