DIY Cookie Mix Jars That Bake Joy Into Every Kitchen

I’ve always believed the sweetest gifts are the ones that spark memories.

When you layer flour, oats, candies, and chocolate chips in a glass jar, it’s like stacking tiny bits of Christmas joy.

Tie a festive ribbon around the lid, slip in a handwritten baking instruction card, and you’ve turned pantry staples into something magical.

Materials Needed

  • 1 quart (32 oz) glass mason jar with lid
  • 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (90 g) rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup (150 g) brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 cup (170 g) chocolate chips or candies (M&Ms work perfectly)
  • Ribbon, twine, or holiday tags

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Start by whisking together flour, baking soda, and salt. Then carefully pour it into the bottom of the jar and gently tap to level it out.

Step 2: Add a layer of oats on top, spreading them evenly so the lines look clean and defined.

Step 3: Next, layer in brown sugar, pressing it down slightly to keep the jar neat. You need to follow with a layer of granulated sugar.

Step 4: Add the chocolate chips or festive candies on top as the final, colorful layer.

Step 5: Seal the jar tightly and decorate the lid with ribbon, twine, or small ornaments.

Step 6: Attach a little instruction card that says:
“Pour contents into a bowl. Add 1/2 cup melted butter, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Finally, mix, scoop, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes.”

Note:

I like to slip a peppermint candy or mini cookie cutter under the ribbon—it makes the jar feel even more personal and festive.
