Directions: |
Directions:To fill the jar make a funnel out of a piece of wax paper. This will keep the ingredients from clouding up the sides of the jar as you put them in
First layer the flour, baking powder,baking soda and salt
then the brown sugar, use the back of the spoon to tamp it down
then the white sugar
M&M's
Crushed Peppermint
Make a card with the following directions:
in a large mixing bowl pour the contents of the jar all in at once
mix in the egg and the vanilla
beat in the butter
form dough into a big ball in the bowl cover with cling film (saran wrap) and chill for a min of 30 min 1 hour is better
pre heat oven to 350
line cookie sheets with parchment paper or a silpat (unless you want a sticky candy mess!)
with a 2 tbs scoop make little balls of dough and place on the prepared cookie sheet (seriously don't skip that step!)
I flattened the dough balls slightly
bake at 350 for 15-18 min
remove from cookie sheet and let cool on a wire rack |
