      Awesome recipe- made a jar for my mother for her birthday! she usually makes her own cookie recipes, but this one sounded unusual so i went with it as a gift. for her 80th birthday.

      any other type of food/recipe- gifts in a jar- would be appreciated too-, for example once I made her a jar of wild rice mushroom soup recipe in a jar- as it was something she wouldn’t make for herself normally

      i just want to clarify, these instructions are for just one jar?
      I am wanting to make several for gifts for friends and family, but m afraid it could get expensive.
