Preparation:
1. Combine flour, salt and baking soda - stir well. Place flour mixture in a clean mason jar. Pack down tight so everything will fit in the jar. (Use a spoon or a mallet.) Add other ingredients, one item at a time, packing each layer down.
2. Put the lid on the jar and tie a ribbon around the lid. You can add a personalized label, if you wish. As an added touch, tie a wooden spoon to the lid with a piece of ribbon.
3. Print out the following instructions on a gift card and tape the card to the jar:
Whip 1/2 cup of butter until light and fluffy. Add 1 egg and 1 tsp. vanilla and beat until mixed. Stir in the ingredients from this jar until well combined. Drop 1 Tbsps of dough on a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees F. Share with a friend. |
