Chocolate Chip Cookies the Mason Jar Way

Easy as 1-2-3, you got it right here! With the holiday season a sprinkling of snowflakes away, here is one nifty instant cookie present fit for a sweet-tooth relative or friend! You've heard of cakes that pop out of a packet, Betty Crocker way. How about cakes that elegantly swish out of a Mason jar and that are entirely personable, i.e. as health-conscious, organic and luxurious as you want them to be? And pretty and thoughtful enough to become presents, without your breaking the bank or a nail?

The Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe infographic brought to me by the guys at Fix is a nifty edible present that is 100% customisable and assembled together in less than 5 minutes. The present requires a little involvement for the recipient, namely mixing the ingredients together with egg, butter and vanilla - and have an oven at the ready. Talk about hassle-free baking, when virtually all of the ingredients have been selected, weighed and handed over to you in a jar with a tag and a ribbon. Yes we could do the baking for you, but then we would have to scoff all the cookies!
