5 Reviews of Cute As a Button Cookie Mix in a Jar

From: SugarPlum336

On Dec 27, 2005

I made this as a gift for several people. The jar looks great with the different layers. I used a wide mouth jar and was unable to fit a full cup of M&M's in. I could only fit a 1/2 cup and even then had to struggle to make everything fit. I put extra M&M's in baggies. I did try the cookies out and they are very tasty. Just watch out, because you may get to the top of the jar like I did and realize that everything doesn't quite fit.

    These cookies are delicious! I made up a jar for a christmas gift and decided I wanted to give them a try myself. When making the gift I used a small mouth jar which I should of used a wide mouth cause I didn't have room for the brown sugar so I put the brown sugar in a baggie and tied it to the jar lid along with the instruction card. Thanks for sharing your recipe. They'll good!

    I'm not sure what recipe everyone else used, but this recipe is no good. I could not fit all of the chocolate chips into the jar, which another reviewer mentioned. Then when I mixed the ingredients together, the consistancy was really sandy. It barely held together even when I packed it. I tried baking it anyway and they were crumbly and it seemed too sugary. I felt that it lacked salt. I would not recommend trying this recipe unless you want to adjust the measurements to get a good recipe. Sorry!

    Very pretty in jars. I really had to squeeze everything in. It worked because I had a liter and not a quart jar, so be careful there. I hope they taste as good as the jar looks!

    I could not fit all the ingredients in the jar, and the cookie dough was dry.
