Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies:
Here's my favourite recipe out of all of the homemade gifts in a jar: tasty chocolate chocolate chip cookies!
These decadent morsels have just the right amount of sweetness and chewiness. In my house, it's very difficult not to go through a whole batch of these in one day.
Chocolate cookies need to be watched carefully in the oven. They can over bake and become rock-hard very quickly. I only bake mine for around 9 minutes.

Bring on the chocolate!
In the following order, layer these ingredients in your jar

Instructions for baking:
