Recipe: Chewy Country Cookies

One of the best holiday gifts to give – cookie mix in a jar! They’re fun to make and even more fun to receive. Mix it up for a baby shower with pink and blue m&ms, or orange ones for Halloween…even all red for Valentine’s Day.  Bakerella has inspired me and I was struck with the creativity this project can offer…soon I hope to come up with brownies in a jar.

What You Need

• 1 Ball jar – or an 8 cup mason jar – I found mine at Michaels
• 1/4 a yard of fabric (for 6 jars)
• Ribbon
• Ingredients listed below

Get out the bowls to fill with the various ingredients…works well if you’re making more than 1 or 2 gifts.

Layer away! Be sure to pack in all in tightly…I started packing after the m&ms…otherwise the pecans won’t fit.

Make labels – or use mine…cooking instructions are on top of the jar!

Cookie Labels PDF

I used a hot glue gun to put on the labels – the instructions on top of the jar and the label on the front. Then, cut your fabric about 6 inches by 6 inches, cover the lid and tie the ribbon tightly to secure.

Gift away!
