Instructions
ASSEMBLE THE JARS
- You’ll need a wide mouth 1 quart/32 oz. mason jar. Add the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the bottom on the mason jar first. (You can place them on a paper plate and fold the paper plate to easily get the ingredients into the jar if you don’t have a funnel, or just spoon it in). Tap on the counter to level it off.
- Spoon in and layer the brown sugar in next, followed by the granulated sugar. Then, the semi sweet chocolate chips, and the M&M's® on top.
- Seal tightly with a lid, and decorate with a bow, fabric, free printable recipe card, etc.
TO MAKE
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Add the butter, egg, and vanilla to a stand mixer bowl fitted with the paddle attachment. Combine for 2-3 minutes, everything won’t look very incorporated at this point and it’s OK.
- Add all contents of the jar in and mix together on low speed, being careful not to break up the M&M's® too much. You could always pour the M&M's® out first and then stir them in to ensure they don’t break.
- Scoop into ~2 tbsp. Sized cookies, and place on prepared cookie sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes. The cookies will look underbaked but set up as they cool. Swirl a cup or something a little larger around the cookies right out of the oven to give them a perfect circular look. Add more M&M's® or chocolate chips on top, if you have any!
- Place on cooling rack, and enjoy! Store at room temperature in an airtight container for 3-5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
