Chocolate Cookies in a Jar Recipe

For a special gift this year, why not make this chocolate cookies in a jar gift. It also comes with a printable recipe card.

Jar Ingredients:

  • 1 3/4 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • * baking chips
  • * Walnuts

Filling the Jar:
Start out by layering the ingredients in a quart size canning jar in the order listed. It is helpful to use a small funnel for most of the ingredients. Pack down all ingredients as you add each one. You can use whatever flavor baking chips you want; I used peanut butter. The walnuts are optional. If you use the walnuts, use enough to fill the jar to the top. If you do not use the walnuts, use extra baking chips so the jar is full to the top.

Print Out the Recipe:
Don't forget to print out one of the chocolate cookie recipe gift tags and include it with your cookies in a jar gift. You can also design your own.
