I made these this weekend to test before I make the cookie in the jar for Christmas gift baskets. I didnt change a thing in the recipe, and these are now my favorite cookies. DELISH.

I haven't done the "dress-rehearsal" of actually baking these cookies yet; however, I prepared the jar for gift-giving, and it's a gorgeous 5-star presentation!

Delicious. I'd like to give them as a gift someday, but I keep caving and making them for myself.

Ignore posters who say that mixing the butter and egg together causes it to curdle...it's not curdled. The "problem" is you want to call it that is that the egg and butter don't completely combine without a binder such as the sugar. Once you add the balance of the ingredients everything will be fine.

I used walnuts instead of pecans (taste better in my opnion). I made this for our young women church group and we gave them to the Grandmas in our church...it was a huge hit. They are seriously the BEST cookies I have ever had and everyone else says the same. What a great recipe!!! Fits perfectly in the jar too. You will want to use this one over and over. A keeper

These were delicious. I made them as gifts, but also tried them out before hand. I prefer cherries instead of cranberries and chose to use pistachios instead of pecans because it was around the holidays and it makes them red and green. It is similar to a biscotti recipe that enjoy and it's great to not have to double bake these. Thanks for the recipe!

These cookies were a huge hit with my friends. I took them for a girls weekend at the beach and the five of us devoured them in no time at all. The ingredients look great layered in a jar, and they're incredibly easy. The parchment paper is key during baking. Bake them for the minimum time for perfectly soft cookies.
