A great gift idea for cookies--layer the dry ingredients in a one-quart glass jar! Attach the preparation instructions on a label or card.

Candy Cookies In A Jar

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup quick-cooking oats
1 cup mini candy-coated milk chocolate pieces
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup salted peanuts
1/2 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter, softened
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  1. Layer flour, baking soda, salt, oats, candy pieces, brown sugar, sugar and peanuts in a 1-quart glass jar with airtight seal. Cover; decorate jar as desired.
  2. Heat oven to 350°F. Combine butter, egg and vanilla in large mixer bowl. Beat at medium speed until well mixed (2 to 3 minutes). Add dry ingredients from jar. Stir by hand until well mixed.
  3. Shape dough into 1-inch balls or drop by level tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets.

Makes 3 1/2 dozen cookies.

TIP: Use within one month to avoid hardening of brown sugar.
