1 cup white sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

1/2 cup peanut butter chips or chopped peanuts

Preparation / Directions:

1. Combine flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda - stir well. Place flour mixture in a clean mason jar. Pack down tight so everything will fit in the jar. (Use a spoon or a mallet.) Add other ingredients, one item at a time, packing each layer down.

2. Put the lid on the jar and tie a ribbon around the lid. You can add a personalized label, if you wish. As an added touch, tie a wooden spoon to the lid with a piece of ribbon.

3. Print out the following instructions on a gift card and tape the card to the jar:

Whip 1 cup of butter or shortening with 1 cup of peanut butter until light and fluffy. Add 2 eggs and 1 tsp. vanilla and beat until mixed. Stir in the ingredients from this jar until well combined. Drop teaspoons of dough on a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 12 - 14 minutes at 350 degrees F. Share with a friend.
