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.

I’ve been dying for a mixer, in general. I use a whisk now by hand for everything, which is nice for most things but not everything. My sister and best friend are coming over this weekend to make chocolates for the holidays, but I would have to say if I made cookies it would probably be for everyone I know! I’m always in the kitchen and baking is my favorite way to cook, so this would come in handy. May have to try this cookie recipe first thing this weekend!
I always like to share with everyone I come in contact with that day until all of those cookies are gone. I do this so I don’t eat them all!!
