Next, layer the semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chunks, and optionally, the chopped walnuts or pecans, to create a visually appealing presentation.

Step 4

Seal the jar tightly with a lid and decorate with a ribbon or tag.

Step 5

Include baking instructions for the gift recipient: 'Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Empty the jar contents into a large mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup (1 stick) of melted butter, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until combined. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto a lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.'
