  5. -Use dry measuring cups and measure accurately
  6. -Do not assume a pasta sauce or mayonnaise jar is a quart.
  7. -Blend the flour, baking powder, soda and salt with a wire whisk
  8. -Pack layers tightly in the order they are listed so all the ingredients will fit and won’t get mixed up
  9. -If you want to keep two layers separate, cut a circle of wax paper and lay between.
  10. -If baking cocoa is in the middle, wipe down the inside of the jar with
  11. paper towel to prevent streaking.
  12. -Place lid on to pack tightly the last layer.
  13. -Lay fabric ring over lid and screw on the ring portion of the lid.
  14. Attach ingredient list and directions with tape or punch a hole and tie
  15. it on with yarn or ribbon.
  16. Attach the following recipe on a gift label:
  17. Chocolate Cherry Cookies

  20. Empty jar of cookie mix into a large mixing bowl. Thoroughly blend the mix ingredients. Add 3/4 cup butter or margarine, softened, 1 large egg, slightly beaten, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until completely blended—it will be a very stiff mix and may require hand mixing.

  22. Shape dough in to balls the size of walnuts. Place 2 inches apart on baking sheets.
  23. Bake 12 to 15 minutes. Cool 5 minutes on a baking sheet. Remove to racks to finish cooling.
