I tend to think that cookies are a good thing to bring to most occasions. When planning our wedding, I had a grand plan of having a cookie table that people could contribute to and then take home at the end of the night. However I was sad to find out once we picked our venue that due to food safety laws no homemade food could be served there.
After some brainstorming - we came up with the idea of cookies in a jar. I figured this was even better than taking away already made cookies - as our guests could take them home, and have easy delicious cookies whenever they wanted. I set out to find a recipe with ingredients that just fit inside a quart jar, had a variety of colors, and were tasty - and I lucked out to stumble upon this monster cookie recipe.
Not only are these cookies simple to make, but they are delicious! They are sort of a like a chocolate chip, M&M and oatmeal cookie, all mixed in together into one chewy cookie. And they make great gifts either in a jar, or in cookie form :).
