Smart Little Cookie


One sweet way to say thank you to your teacher. 
Jar and "cookie" points included.



Super Simple Steps:
1. Buy a medium-size jar. (I found these at Walmart)
2. Bake a couple dozen chocolate chip cookies {see my coveted recipe below}.
3. Using a coffee filter as the insert, stack a dozen cookies in the jar.
4. If you have a vinyl cutting machine, cut out the teachers name and apply it to the cookie jar.
5. Tie on the tag. {see below for printable}.

Mrs. Ballard's Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 lb. butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 cups brown sugar, packed
3 large eggs
2 tsp. Mexican vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. soda
6 cups flour
4 cups extra-large milk chocolate chips

Beat butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla. Whip 4 minutes. Mix dry ingredients together, add to batter. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Use an ice cream scoop for extra large cookies. Place 2 inches apart on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes. Cool on wire racks. Store in an airtight container.
