Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

  2. In the quart-sized glass jar, layer the ingredients in the following order: white sugar, brown sugar, flour mixture, rolled oats, candy-coated chocolate pieces, and chopped nuts. Press down after adding each layer to create a compact look.

  3. Seal the jar tightly, making sure none of the ingredients spill out. You can also add a ribbon or a decorative tag to make it look extra special.

  4. Provide a label or instructions with the mix. Here's a suggested label: "To make delicious Candy Cookies, preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, cream together 3/4 cup softened butter, 1 egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Add the contents of this jar and mix until well combined. Drop tablespoon-sized dough onto a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown."

  5. This mix makes approximately 2 dozen cookies, perfect for sharing or enjoying with your loved ones. Feel free to experiment with different mix-ins like dried fruits, shredded coconut, or even chocolate chips for a unique twist.
