Excellent as a gift! Have given it to best friend as part of gift basket for Christmas, he still has yet to make them. Guess I'll help him there, too :)

I wanted to make these for a gift, but I never really thought about trying them out. But I messed up and made too much and when it wouldn't fit in my jar I decided to use it to sample the cookies. I'm glad I did! They're delicious, even if they don't flatten the way cookies usually do. There was a lot of chocolate chips in it though, but I think that it made it yummier! I'm not a big fan of chocolate chip cookies, but I really love these. They look pretty in the jars and I hope that everyone I give them to likes them as well! Thanks for the recipe.

Jar itself presented really nice...was impressed with how pretty it looked. The cookies themselves TASTED great-but looked all weird. I tried three different tweaks (as recommended by ratings here) to the recipe before I put them into the jars-two full eggs, softened butter etc...and they still turned out weird looking to me. The taste was good as was the presentation in the jar though!

Sweet cookie, but I wound up with really dry dough. It could have been because I didn't melt the butter all the way. Next time, I would be sure to melt all of the butter.

It didn't turn out well for us. We didn't have butter so we used marg, and we used 2 eggs instead of 1/5, so that may have been why. If I were to try it again I would use fewer chocolate chips as well.

I too added a little extra flour and used two eggs... my "cookies" were more cake-like than anything but they had a good flavour. I think next time I will call them muffin tops or make them into cookie bars.

This recipe is yummy, not to mention pretty when you spice up the jar with ribbon. And this is how you get 1 1/2 eggs: if you read the info. up at the top, the original recipe was for 2 dozen. It has been changed (probably by allrecipes.com) to make 1 dozen. That means that the original recipe used 3 eggs. I assume they just divided 3 in half without really thinking about it.

I made this for a fundraiser (and forgot to take a picture). The jars turned out pretty cute - next time I would put the darker ingredients on the bottom so they will show better, the fabric I put on the lids hid the chocolate chips. I'm only giving this recipe a 3 star rating because the 1 1/2 egg instruction is ridiculous. I instrcuted to use 2 eggs, but I did not mix a batch for myself so I don't know how they turned out. Thanks for the recipe.
