• ▢ ¾ cup plain flour
• ▢ ¼ tsp bi-carbonate soda
• ▢ ¼ tsp baking powder
• ▢ pinch of salt
• ▢ ⅓ cup brown sugar (firmly packed)
• ▢ ⅓ cup caster sugar
• ▢ ¾ cup rolled oats
• ▢ 100 g dried cranberries
• ▢ ¾ cup white chocolate chips

• To make 'cookies in a jar' you'll need a 1 litre glass jar.

• In a small bowl, mix the plain flour, baking powder, bi-carb soda and salt together.

• Carefully spoon the flour mixture into the bottom of the glass jar. Gently move the flour around so that you have an even layer.

• Gently spoon the brown sugar in an even layer over the flour.

• Continue creating layers in the following order: caster sugar, rolled oats, dried cranberries, white chocolate chips.

• Close the lid of the glass jar (if you have any extra space at the top of the jar, simply top up with extra chocolate chips).

• Print out our free recipe gift tag and attach to the jar with a ribbon (see notes).

If you would prefer to hand write your own gift tag rather than use our free printable, simply write: Preheat oven to 190 degrees celsius. Pour ingredients into a large bowl. Add 125g melted butter, 1 lightly beaten egg & 1 tsp vanilla extract. Mix well. Roll the mixture into balls and place onto a large baking tray. cook for 10-15 minutes or until lightly golden.

To create even layers in the jar, use a spoon to gently add each layer of ingredients. You can also use a dry tea towel or paper towel to wipe down the inside of the glass as you go.
