M&M Mason Jar Cookies Supplies

I’ve shared M&M cookies before, and they’ve been a huge hit! Since the full recipe didn’t fit in a mason jar, I adjusted it for a half batch. For the full recipe, follow this recipe.

Mason Jar Christmas Cookies (Free Printables)

Crispy exteriors and soft + chewy interiors with M&Ms and Chocolate Chips — these are the ultimate holiday cookie!
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 11 minutes
Total Time: 26 minutes
Servings: 24 cookies

Ingredients  

  • 1 and 3/4 cups white all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup holiday M&Ms
  • 3/4 cups milk chocolate chips

ADD IN LATER

  • 3/4 cup (1 and 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 tablespoon vanilla extract

Instructions 

  • IN THE MASON JAR: combine the flour, baking soda and salt in the bottom of a 1-quart mason jar. Tap the jar several times firmly to get the flour mixture in one layer. Press it down as much as possible. Next, add in the brown sugar and pack down as much as possible. Next, add in the white sugar and again pack that down. Add in the M&Ms and chocolate chips. Press down firmly. Seal the mason jar, add a ribbon with a miniature whisk (if desired), and attach the free printable recipe attachment (or the following directions)
  • RECIPE TO ATTACH: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Beat butter, egg and vanilla extract in large mixing bowl until blended. Add mason jar mix and mix well. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto parchment lined baking sheets. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before removing to a cooling rack.

  3. Ana says:

    Hello. Is there any way to edit the cookie printable? I’m only making the m&m cookie and would want to print all of them. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks!

    1. Ana says:

      *wouldn’t

    2. chelseamessyapron says:

      Hey Ana, I’m not quite sure what you’re asking; the printables are all individual so if you’re only using one that’s all that’s on the printable. Hope that helps!

  9. Nadia says:

    Beautiful, how long can I keep the cookies?
    Thank you!

    1. chelseamessyapron says:

      Hi Nadia! The baked cookies are best within 2-3 days and the mason jars should last up to 6 months if they are stored in a cool dark area (and fresh ingredients were used). Enjoy!

  10. Tori says:

    I’m so in love with this idea! How could a gift get any cuter and it’s just so well presented too! Thanks for the video!

            How could I condense the sugar cookie or m&m cookie recipe to fit in a 16 oz jar?
