Homemade Christmas Gifts

Instead of the usual bean soup in a jar, Nathan and I decided to make something a little more unique to  give away as Christmas gifts.

Behold: S'mores In a Jar!
They turned out so cute and delicious!

24 jars ready to go.


Recipe:

1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers
1 cup chocolate chips
1/3 cup brown sugar
(Teddy Grahams are optional if you want the cute factor!)
1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows

Layer ingredients in a 1-quart mason jar.


Attach a tag that reads:

1. Combine jar contents with 1/2 cup melted butter and 1 tsp. vanilla.
2.  Press mixture into 8 or 9 inch square baking dish.  Place marshmallows on top.
3.  Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
4.  Let cool completely and refrigerate before cutting.
Makes 12 yummy bars.
