Chris, Yes these can be made ahead of time, I would make sure the fondant topping is really dry (air-dry for at least a day) before placing them in an air-tight container. If you are going to make them more than a week ahead of time, I would freeze them. Just make sure you place a piece of wax paper between the layers of cookies and freeze in an air-tight container. Hope this helps.
