Oatmeal Plus Cookies in a Jar
Cookies in a Jar Project

By , About.com Guide

Follow these instructions to make oatmeal plus cookies in a jar gift and then print out the recipe card to include.

Jar Ingredients:

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 cups oats
  • * raisins

Filling the Jar:
Layer the ingredients in a quart size canning jar in the order listed. I used a small funnel and it worked pretty good for most of the ingredients! Use enough raisins to fill the jar to the top. If you do not want to use raisins, you can use baking chips; our favorite is butterscotch! Pack down all ingredients, especially the brown sugar!

Print Out the Recipe:
Print out one of the recipe gift tags here and include it with your cookies in a jar gift. You can also design your own!
