Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar (packed)
- 2 cups Cornflakes
- 0.5 cup Chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
In a 1-quart mason jar or any large, clean, and dry glass jar, carefully layer the ingredients for a beautiful presentation.
Step 2
Start by adding the all-purpose flour to the bottom of the jar. Use a spoon or funnel for ease, and pack the flour gently but firmly.
Step 3
Add the baking powder and salt on top of the flour layer to keep all dry ingredients together.
Step 4
Carefully layer the granulated sugar, followed by the brown sugar. Press down the brown sugar firmly to ensure it stays in place.
Step 5
Add the crushed or whole cornflakes for the next layer. Gently press them down to maximize space in the jar.
Step 6
Top the cornflakes with chocolate chips, spreading them evenly to create a final attractive layer.
Step 7
Seal the jar tightly with a lid and attach a decorative label or tag.
Step 8
On the tag, include these baking instructions: 'To make Cornflake Cookies, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Empty jar contents into a large bowl and mix well. Add 1/2 cup (113g) of softened butter, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until combined. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden. Cool before serving.'
