M&M Cookies in a Jar

Are you looking for a fun gift for the holidays that isn’t going to break the bank?  I love the look of gifts in a jar because they are not only appealing but they also show that you care and put time and thought into the gift you are giving.  In turn, that shows you care or respect the person you are giving the gift to.  Recently, I shared a Spiced Tea Mix in a jar that I made for my husband’s coworkers last year, and I have a few others I plan to share later in the season.

Today, I’m sharing a great recipe for a DIY M&M Cookies Gift in a Jar that would make a great gift, whether it be for the holidays or for another special occasion.  It’s really simple to put together, but still looks like you spent a lot of time on it!
