Chocolate Raisin Cookie Mix

Recipes in a Jar

These make great gifts for friends and family for every occasion from Christmas to birthdays, to mothers day's and even just a pick me up for someone who is feeling down.

For these recipes you will need a jar that holds around 1 quart or 1.130 litres.
If your jar is airtight add the ingredients directly otherwise place them into
an airtight or ziplock bag and attach the recipe card instructions.

Tie the whole jar up with some cellophane or add some curling ribbons and a bow to finish off this gift

3/4 Cup Sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1 cup chocolate covered raisins
1/2 cup milk chocolate chip morsels
1 3/4 cups flour mixed with 1 tsp. baking powder and 1/2 tsp. baking soda

Press each layer firmly in place making sure you really pack it down before you add
the flour mixture, it will be a tight fit but it will work.
