I received this gift last year and I loved it. Not only did it look lovely but it was a wonderful family gift and activity. All that is needed is add the wet ingredients to the contents of the jar and bake.
Ingredients
1 ½ cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cup Holiday M&M's
1/3 cup light brown sugar packed
½ cup granulated sugar
1-quart Mason jar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cup Holiday M&M's
1/3 cup light brown sugar packed
½ cup granulated sugar
1-quart Mason jar
What to do
- Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl.
- Pour flour mixture into the bottom of a 1-quart mason jar.
- Top the flour mixture with M&M's (drop the M&Ms gently so that they don't sink into the flour mixture – You want them visible).
- Next add the brown sugar and then the granulated sugar.
To Decorate
- Use a 6.5 inch circle of fabric to decorate each Mason jar lid or use ribbon.
- Include the below recipe either as a label attached to the jar or attached to the ribbon.
Pour the contents of
the jar into a large bowl and stir to combine. Add 1/2 cup softened butter, 1
beaten egg, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Stir until combined.
Make golf ball sized
portions of dough and place the dough balls onto lined baking sheets. Bake at
350°F for 8-10 minutes, until the centers of the cookies are just barely set.
