Cow"ghoul" Cookies

Bakerella is the baking goddess. Love her fun ideas and yummy recipes. She had a super cute Cowgirl Cookie Mix in a jar that was just adorable using pink m&m's. I actually have never done the mix in the jar thing before but wanted to try... I first tried out the recipe with the girlys to make sure we liked it... Wow. It was YUMMY. The kiddos gobbled them up- super moist inside and a little crunchy outside. They had a great time making them too! So I thought it would make a great Halloween Gift idea as Cow"ghoul" Cookies.

Whether for your good friends, your visiting teachees, or a neighbor who is always helping you out, it makes a great gift and fun for the holidays! Think of all the combos you could make- M&M's come in all colors for seasons and holidays so it could be fun gift for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentines Day etc!

I used double stick tape to adhere the label on front and instructions for baking on the back of the jar. My copy and paste feature on this computer is not working for some reason... so check out www.bakerella.com/mix-things-up for the recipe and instructions for assembling jars!

Making the Cow"ghoul" cookies!

• 1- Mix up the dry ingredients (jar contents) in a bowl
• 2- Add liquid ingredients
• 3- Use SMALL ice cream scoop to form cookies (the girls still like to take balls and roll them perfectly smooth!)
• 4-You can bake them on a cookie tray covered with parchment paper
• 5- Bake for 10 minutes and cool on wire racks
• 6- Enjoy the moist tasty goodness!
  

The jars are Quart size and can be bought at Wal-Mart or Frys. I bought 1/4 yard of fabric and it worked perfectly for 6 jars. I had tried to find black bandana western material but the polka dots still turned out cute and they were fun to put together. This would be a great project for kids to help with too!
