Yeah, I thought that would get your attention 
One of my favorite gifts to give during the holidays is ready-made cookie mix. Fill a pretty jar with dry ingredients, attach some unique add-ins, instructions, and voila – a sweet, personalized present that can be stored in the pantry for future use.
And now, you don’t even have to do all that work – The Mason Jar Cookie Company will do it for you!
They recently offered me a chance to build my own creation. Start with a Base Blend…
…then choose 3 ingredients from a variety of add-ins (everything from candy to cereal to nuts/dried fruit)
Ultimately, I went with an Oatmeal Cookie Base, and thought Raisinets would compliment that nicely. Next, some dried pumpkin (because when do you ever see that) and some Marshmallow.
Name your cookie concoction, and add a gift note
Of course, you can create a homemade jar for a fraction of the price, but if you’re pressed for time and don’t want to bother with packaging/post office headaches, this was a really easy option. Plus, there’s nothing to lose:
AND they’re giving one U.S. reader the chance to try it for free! Just leave a comment saying what your dream cookie would be and I’ll choose a winner on Monday.

MMM…I have been craving some chocolate chip cookies lately but I always crave peanut butter so my dream concoction would have to be a Oatmeal Cookie Base with m&ms, peanut butter chips, raisinets, coconut, peanuts, and rice krispies just to mix things up a bit. Oh wait..is that more than three toppings?
Oooh, fun! I would make a cookie with candy probably.

LOL! Perfect.
…and then there is Ginger Molasses.

I make Cookies in a Jar almost every year to give away as gifts. It’s easy and people seem to thoroughly enjoy them. But, having a company that can do it for you is brilliant.

Oatmeal Base with Dried Cranberries, Apples, and sliced Almonds, healthy and delicious!
My dream cookie is the wheat germ chocolate chip cookie from Specialtys in SF Bay Area. Nothing like it and now that I’ve moved East I never get to have it anymore…

Oatmeal! Peanuts! Apples!
It’s like OIAJ…but CIAJ!! Haha

Here’s my Yummylicious Cookie Concoction… The Abba Dabba Zaba Cookie… My inspiration for this wonderful concoction would of course be The chewy gooey Abba Zabba bar which I love love love… And, well, the name kinda has a Flintstones flair with the “Yabba-Dabba-Doo” lingo.. Here goes~ Peanut Butter cookie mix with gooey marshmallows, white chocolate chunks and peanut butter chips.. That goes from Yummylicous to Yabbalicious in 2.5 seconds!
I love it! I think they actually might have Fruity Pebbles you could throw in too!!!
