Is there anything better than a present with a personal touch? Yes, there is, when the present is edible! This is a neat present idea: a ready mixed cookie recipe in a pretty jar. Better yet, if you have a special secret family recipe, you don’t have to divulge the secret, you just put all the ingredients in, ready to bake.
This took no time. Just measure up the ingredients of your favourite Christmas cookie recipe and put them in a nice jar one type of ingredient at a time. Make sure the layers are seen very clearly on the outside of the jar. Don’t forget to include instructions such as the liquid ingredients that need adding, baking temperature and duration.
Top the layers with chocolate, walnuts or cinnamon sticks {whatever is needed in the recipe}. Label it up with something pretty and there we are, a very special Christmas present with a personal touch.
Or to keep it even simpler, just bake the cookies, cool and pretty them up in a jam jar for a truly ready-to-eat Christmas present!
