White Chocolate Cranberry Macadamia Nut Cookies in a Jar

I love Cookies in a Jar recipes, especially when they involve white chocolate, macadamia nuts, and cranberries – my all-time favorite cookie recipe. My Dad’s wife, Ginny, recently blessed us with these delicious cookies, and now today I’m sharing the recipe with you!

It’s fun to give during the holiday months, so I pulled out my red stand mixer.

Together with my little neighbor girl, we whipped up a batch of Ginny’s cookies. Everyone loves cookies!

White Chocolate Cranberry Macadamia Nut Cookies

In the beautiful stainless steel bowl, we combined all these beautiful ingredients (plus butter, eggs, and vanilla).

Mixed to perfection.

Baked on a sheet of parchment paper.

Love these cookies because you can eat right away, give away as a gift, or freeze for when company comes.

The perfect gift to give!

Make up extra jars. Don’t forget the instructions!

This is a fun idea for a hostess gift, or just a “because I am thinking of you” gift.

I also love it for school teachers, music teachers, coaches, Sunday School teachers, group leaders, and of course neighbors.
