Send to a friendThe layers in the jar give a pretty "sand art" appearance that makes the jar pretty enough to give as a gift along with the instructions for making the recipe.
Makes about 30
Layer the ingredients in a 1 quart or 1 liter jar, in the order listed. Attach a tag with the following instructions:
Cranberry Hootycreeks
Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a cookie sheet or line it with parchment paper. In a medium mixing bowl, beat together 1/2 cup softened butter, 1 egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla until fluffy.

I thought that there was too much flour. Vanilla is not listed in the ingredients. A very good cookie though.

I am making these for a cookie exchange as well. I made them a few weeks ago and thought they would be perfect for the exchange. I use a small ice cream scoop and yield about 18 cookies.

Mmmmm, they sure taste great. I made 41 using a cookie scoop that made them about 1 1/2 round. They were a little dry while I was placing them on the cookie sheet. I had to use my hands to put pieces back on. But they baked up well and are very tasty. I definitely will be making these again. My sister suggested using 2 eggs instead of one, and maybe a little more butter.
