Packaging ready-made baking mixes in jars for gifts isn’t a new idea by any means and over the years I’ve done my share of fancy mixes. This year I’m going back to a classic though-a fantastic solidly awesome Chocolate Chip Cookie mix in a jar recipe! This is my very favorite recipe for chocolate chip cookies in a jar ready to be baked by the lucky recipient! I also have a few tips for making your mixes look Pinterest-perfect as well as a free printable recipe tag!
Cookie Mix Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups (9 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 quart size mason jar
Assembly instructions & tips
- Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in small bowl.
- Place mixture in 1-quart jar. Now for the tip to getting your mix to look “pretty,” use the back of a spoon to pack the flour mixture down around the outside of the jar.
- Add the brown sugar next using the same method to pack it down in the jar.

Finish by adding the sugar and top with the chocolate chips.
Include this printable with your gift so the recipient knows how to use the mix! If you click here or the image below you can download a pdf with four recipe printables per page.
