I know this idea isn’t breaking the mould, but I love a useful and thoughtful handmade gift. Baking and cooking kits are the perfect budget-friendly Christmas gift idea for everyone on your list because anyone can enjoy it regardless of their culinary skill level! Beautiful glass jars filled with layers of ingredients and adorned with ribbon make an easy festive gift. I prefer to use Mason jars or clip-top jars so they can be used as decor or storage afterwards. Jazz it up with Christmas ornaments or keep it rustic with rough cut fabric and string around the jar. And don’t forget the recipe card and cookie cutter!   This batch is a classic gingerbread cookie recipe, but you could also give the gift of cranberry scones or spice carrot and lentil soup! What would you put in your DIY cooking kit?
