For Christmas presents, as an inexpensive gift, I'm planning to put all of the dry ingredients into a cute decorative jar, print up the recipe in a fancy manner, and give the gift of cookies that they can bake themselves. Does anyone have an easy chocolate chip cookie recipe that might be good to use in this situation?

Here is the BEST chocolate chip cookie recipe. This is my wife's recipe and is also on her blog:
Chocolate Chip cookies–perfect every time
1 pound of butter (that’s 2 cups or 4 quarters)
1 2/3 c. white sugar
2 c. brown sugar
3 eggs
2 t. vanilla
1/2 t. salt
1 1/2 t. soda
6 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
1 1/2 pkg. chocolate chips
Cream sugar and shortening together. Beat in eggs. Add remaining ingredients in the order listed. Bake at 350 on greased cookie sheet **OR PARCHMENT** until golden brown. Remove from pan immediately and let cool. If you eat them too soon, the chocolate chips will burn your mouth.
Some fun variations that we do occasionally: We substitute 1 c. unsweetened cocoa powder for 1 c. flour and make chocolate chocolate chip cookies. We also substitute 1/2 c. malted milk powder for 1/2 c. flour for chocolate chip malt cookies.
The key to perfect cookies lies in not baking them too long (assuming you like chewy cookies) and in baking them on parchment on an insulated cookie sheet. The parchment, with the cookies, can slide right off the pan when they are just perfectly baked. You don’t mangle the cookies by trying to get them off the cookie sheet with a spatula.
Enjoy!

The Hershey's recipe. I'm an experienced baker and I've been relying on these everytime. It works like a miracle every time. Just buy Hershey's milk chocolate chips and the recipe should be on the back. If not, go onto the Hershey's website and get the recipe there.

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aMDUl
The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

I just use the recipe on the back of the chocolate chip bag. Layer the dry ingredients and attach a cute little card that says what they have to add and the baking times and temps.
