Cookies are one of the easiest homemade food gifts to give during the holidays, but want something even easier? Give this White Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough!

Homemade Food Gifts: White Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (with free printable labels)

So here’s the deal: you want to give a homemade food gift to someone this Christmas.

You’re thinking about cookies. You’re thinking of bread. Maybe even fudge or peanut brittle. [all great choices…I’ll wait for my package to arrive]

Well, today I’m sharing one of the easiest ways to give a Christmas treats to someone special: cookie dough!  All you have to do is mix it up, put it in a container, print off some instructions and it’s good to go. No heating up the kitchen. No overbaked cookies. Better yet, no BURNT COOKIES.

All you have to have is mixing skills. And be able to read a recipe. Ready?

Now, beyond mixing up your cookie dough [seriously, you can use any recipes, but I have the white chocolate chip cookie dough recipe at the end of this post], you will need something to put it in. I picked up these pint-sized containers with lids at Smart and Final, which work great for holding cookie dough.

Homemade Food Gifts: Cookie Dough

When you give your cookie dough gift to someone, you have to include something that tells them how to bake the cookies. You can do it any way you would like. Some ideas:

  • write it directly on the container
  • use large sticky tags and write on those and stick on the top
  • list the instructions on a tag and tie it on the container

My preferred method: make a label!

I have provided a free printable label below for you to print for your cookie dough. They are 3 1/2″ in diameter, which is perfect for the pint size containers I bought from Smart & Final.

Just click on the image below to open these labels as a PDF file that you can save to your computer or print directly.

The label was printed on white cardstock and cut out. Using a tape runner (you could use other adhesives), I added a bit of adhesive around the edge of the lid to allow the ribbon to attach easier. It was tied simply with a knot. I also used the tape runner to secure the label on the top of the lid. An extra bit of ribbon was tied and secured to the top of the label on the lid, under the title, but before the instructions.

Here’s the recipe — it’s enough for 2 full pints of cookie dough with a little bit of extra. Just bake those up and enjoy for yourself!

Keywords: 8 ingredients, food gift ideas,

Recipe based upon a Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe on a Ghiradelli Chocolate bag.

The dough will keep well for 3-5 days in the refrigerator, so I recommend making just prior to giving. If the cookie dough won’t be used within 3-5 days, I would recommend freezing for up to 3 months. If using containers such as the ones I used, I would wrap them well in plastic wrap before freezing. When ready to use, allow dough to thaw and prepare as usual.
