Ingredients
- ¾ cup all purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup & leveled
- ½ cup white whole wheat flour, spooned into a measuring cup & leveled
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup cooking oats
- ½ cup M&Ms, red and green
- ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup white sugar
Instructions
- Start with a 1 quart smooth Ball jar. Layer the ingredients in, like this:
- First: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon
- Second: oats
- Third: M&Ms
- Fourth: chocolate chips
- Fifth: brown sugar
- Sixth: white sugar
- Pack each level down really tightly. I mean it. Pack it in. Or else it won’t all fit. The ingredients should be flush to the top of the lid when you seal it up.
- Write or print the following instructions on a tag and tie or glue it to the jar:”Add: 1 slightly beaten egg, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter (melted slightly in the microwave), 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Roll the cookie dough into 1 1/2 inch balls, place on a parchment covered baking sheet. Bake for about 10 -15 minutes in a preheated 350 degree oven.”
