Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookies Mix in a Jar

[after_the_ashes]

I got a bit overwhelmed by Christmas cookies after the last few days. But, I still had people on my list that I wanted to acknowledge with gift-giving after making several tins of cookies to give out. ‘Tis the season, after all! And, from what I’ve learned over the last few years of being involved and volunteering and my child’s school, I also know that sometimes office staff and teachers are also overwhelmed by all the amazing treats they are given during this season. That is where this Cranberry-White Chocolate Chip Cookies Mix in a Jar comes in.
