Instructions
-
Assemble all your ingredients and utensils. Print your free printable gift tags, if needed.
-
Start With The Flour, Baking Soda & Salt. In a medium bowl, combine gluten-free flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine, then pour the flour mixture into a clean quart-sized jar. (Use a funnel if it helps!) Gently shake the jar back and forth a bit to level the flour layer.
-
Carefully Add The Brown Sugar. Add the brown sugar on top of the flour mixture and gently back down using the back of a small measuring cup or a small juice glass.
-
Then, Layer In The Sugar. Then, add the sugar on top of the brown sugar layer. Gently shake to level the sugar or use a measuring cup.
-
Add Chocolate Chips. Now, you’re ready to add the chocolate chips! Pour in the chocolate chips as gently as possible to layer on top of the sugar.
-
Finish With M&Ms. Last, you’ll add the M&Ms on top of the chocolate chips.
-
Secure The Lid & Attach Your Tags. Make sure the lid is screwed on tightly. Add any gift labels, or a gift bow on top of the lid if desired, then attach the tag with ribbon.
-
