Please don't rate the recipe before trying it! It looked like a good idea, but I tried a batch myself before I gave out the gifts and was not very impressed. If you like flat, crispy cookies then they were good...and I followed the recipe exactly. Would brown sugar, margarine, and baking powder make a difference?

You did not mention how big the jar should be. Please display the details about how big the jar should be when you fill it. It looks smaller than expected.

I used quart size mason jars. It turned out really cute. Next time I would use choc. chips b/c chopping up all the chocolate was a pain in the neck.

I have not made this recipe, but it is very creative. This would be a great gift to give at Christmas.

I made a bunch of these for friends for Christmas. They look beautiful. I did mine with ribbone and a snowman printout on the top. I would suggest buying a wider opening jar. the first batch i had wide mouth jars and the other were just regular. that was a bit frustrating as you can't pour a measureing cup into a regular jar opening. Everyone has so pleased to get this gift.
