I saw this idea at Crate and Barrel a month or so ago and I just thought that it was so cute! I decided to make my own version of this mix. This is perfect for the busy holiday season because it makes bar cookies which are fast and easy! This is perfect for neighbor, teachers, friends, the sisters you visit teach…or for yourself when time is tight!
Just layer all the ingredients in a 1 quart wide mouth mason jar. Tie the recipe to the bottle and you are good to go! It doesn’t get much easier!
This is the list of ingredients that you will need to layer in the jar. I found the snowflake sprinkles at Gygi’s. This is formatted to a 5 x 7 size if you want to print it and keep it in your recipes for future use.
This is the tag that you will tie to the top of the jar. It is formatted to a 3 x 5 size.
To print, right click over the image and go to “save image as” then save in a folder. You can then print it or send it out to your favorite photo processing center.
So do you have all of your neighbor gifts done yet? I have not even started…I need to get going and get better organized! I am starting to panic and it is only the 5th of December!
Have a great weekend everyone…maybe you should make some cookies and play Christmas music and just relax…maybe I should too! :)
Thanks for visiting!
Once again WOW and thank you so much!!
Pam, you are welcome! Hope your holidays are the happiest yet!
This turned out so cute!! You are amazing!!! :)
Oh you are so sweet for saying that. We had a fun time at Crate and Barrel that day! Hope you have a happy day!
Thanks so much for all your great ideas! Merry Christmas!!
Such an adorable gift! Thank you!
This is such a cute idea, thank you once again. I’m going to a cookie swap next week and will be doing these bars instead of cookies. I’ll take “the gift’ jar to the hostess and recipe cards for those attending her party. I’ve never seen snowflake sparkles, where did you purchase them? To eliminate yet another trip to the store, I’m betting that I’ll be using whatever sprinkles I have in the pantry. :0)
Your Santa party tradition is a marvelous idea. No wonder you were exhausted. What a wonderful idea the blankets are……….teaching the kids about caring for others. Do you spend the year searching for fleece on sale? LOL
Bev, I got my sprinkles at Gygyi’s. There is a link in the post if you want to order some, then you do not have to go to the store! I did not even get one of the cookies before they were all gone or given away, but my DIL said that they were really good, so I will have to take her word for it. I think that I would just sprinkle all of the M&M’s and snowflake sprinkles on the top before baking. They show up a lot better that way! I did not spend a lot of time searching for fleece, but it was all on sale at JoAnn’s when I bought it…so we lucked out! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. Happy Holidays to you and your family!
