Seal the jar tightly with a lid, and attach a tag or label with the baking instructions.

Baking instructions for the recipient: 'Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, beat together 1/2 cup (1 stick) of softened unsalted butter, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Add the contents of the jar and stir until a dough forms. Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool and enjoy!'
