Smores Cookie Mix in a Jar

My kiddos love for me to bake homemade cookies for them. I usually bake gluten free peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip raisin cookies for them, but since it's the holiday season, I've been trying different cookie recipes. While grocery shopping, I found some Hershey's S'mores Pieces, and there was a recipe for S'mores Cookies on the back of the bag. I thought it would be an awesome recipe to put in a jar as a gift, and I also made a batch of the cookies for my kiddos, too!

IT'S DAY 8, AND WE'RE SHARING CHRISTMAS IN A JAR IDEAS!


I am sticking to my Seahawk Christmas theme!

I followed the recipe on the Hershey's S'mores bag and gathered the ingredients and a mason jar.

Ingredients (in the jar): 
1 ¾ cup all-purpose flour
 ¾ cup packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
7 ounce package Hershey's S'mores Baking Pieces

I cut a piece of Seahawks fabric, to place under the lid.

I wrote the ingredients that need to be added and the baking instructions on a mason jar tag and tied it to the mason jar.

Just add: ¾ cup softened butter, 1 egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

I added a couple green bells...

This jar of S'mores cookie mix is ready to be gifted! I made a batch of these cookies for my kiddos, and they loved them! I will make them again soon! Thanks for stopping by!!!

  5. Fun idea for a gift in a jar. As a Falcons fan, I can't say I'm loving the Seahawks them,but you're making some really fun and cute Christmas items!

    1. Thank you! I live in GA now, and I really don't see much Falcons stuff. I guess because we're so close to FL everything is Jaguars... or GA Bulldogs. But of course, all my Seahawks items can be used as inspiration for creations in other team colors. I love that the Seahawk colors are blue and green, which are my favorite colors. I recently painted our front door the Seahawks green... lol
