You can do this with almost any cookie recipe. The trick is to layer the ingredients in a jar, and not have any air-space at the top. If there is a little space left when all the ingredients have been packed in, just add a few more smarties or some coconut. so it's tightly packed. This just makes it look better. When the jars are filled, just attach a label advising what else needs to be incorporated (usually an egg and some butter), and the baking instructions.
Here's a recipe that I've used many times........
Jar Ingredients
1 1/2 cups
all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon
baking soda
1/4 teaspoon
baking powder
1/2 cup
packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup
milk chocolate chips
1/2 cup
rolled oats
In a 1 quart jar, layer the ingredients in the order listed. Pack down firmly after each addition.
Attach a tag
with the following instructions:
Preheat the oven
to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a large bowl, cream 1/2 cup
margarine until light and fluffy.
Mix in 1 egg and 2 tablespoons water.
Add the entire contents of the jar, and stir until well blended.
Drop by
rounded spoonfuls onto an un-greased cookie sheet.
Bake for 10 to
12 minutes in preheated oven.
Remove from baking sheets to cool on wire
racks.
NOTE***
You can change up some of the ingredients to make your own specialty cookies. I often use raisins and dried cranberries instead of chocolate chips and smarties. This is definitely a recipe that you can have a lot of fun with!
Here's a few pictures of the last batch I made for a fundraiser at work........
Enjoy ;o)
This is a great idea! Have to say I've never had a cookie with Smarties in it, though. Made them many times with M&M's!
ReplyDeleteFunny you said that...my original recipe called for M&M's, but I couldn't find any so I used Smarties!!

This will be cute to do when the holiday red and green m&m's are out!
