Add the entire jar of ingredients, and mix together by hand until well blended. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.

These cookies are wonderful! I made 2 batches and ended up with about 35 small cookies. You can also 'play' with the 'addin' ingredients..nuts,chips,etc. This is a keeper for my recipe box! As a Give on Holiday 'Cookies In a Jar' Recipe, it's a great recipe!!

We LOVE these cookies. This year we made them for Christmas gifts. To make them look a little more festive I dipped half the cookie in melted white chocolate and sprinkled chopped dried cranberries on the white chocolate. My family has voted that they are even better this way. We then put the finished cookies into a quart jar for our packaging. They looked really cute. I had to make them half the size the recipe call for. With this smaller size, I yielded approx 55 cookies.

These cookies are very easy to make and my family loved them - the first batch disappeared literally overnight! It yielded 24 medium-sized cookies. Definitely try this recipe!!

I think these are really good cookies and easy to make although I did not make it from the jar. I would definitely make them again. They made about 30 cookies.
