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.
Servings: 1 jar
Ingredients
- 1 1/3 cups of flour
- 1 cup of oats
- 3/4 cup of M&M
- 3/4 cup of chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup of brown sugar
- 1/2 cup of white sugar
- 1/3 cup of chopped pecans
- 1 Ball jar - or an 8 cup mason jar - I found mine at Michaels
- 1/4 a yard of fabric for 6 jars
- ribbon
Instructions
- 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!

- 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!
