I love giving cookie mixes packed into jars. Not only is it easier for me to put together than baking the cookies, the recipient can bake the cookies when they are ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is especially thoughtful at holiday time when people probably have an abundance of sweets in the house right around Christmas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These make great gifts for neighbors, teachers, mail carriers, hair stylists, or for mailing to friends and family afar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mint Chip Candy Cane Cookie Bars Alternatives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you just want to make the cookies for yourself without packing the mix into a jar, no problem! Just dump everything in a bowl and mix it up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of bar cookies, you can make drop cookies.<\/strong> Scoop the dough by tablespoonful on a baking sheet about two inches apart. Bake until golden for 8-10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
