JELL-O COOKIES IN A JAR




Source of Recipe


internet


Recipe Introduction


This makes beautiful little pastel colored cookies.


List of Ingredients




Mix well in big bowl with wire whisk:

1/2 cup sugar
1 (3 oz.) package Jell-O, any flavor (orange, lemon or cherry)
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2-1/2 cups flour

This makes about 4 cups mix, enough to fill a quart sized jar.

To give as a gift, place the lid on the jar and cut a piece of fabric in a circle, that is several inches larger than the jar lid. Pinking shears make a nice edge. Secure the fabric to the lid with a rubber band. Attach the directions to the jar with a ribbon or raffia.
