A friend did this for the school fair. Into a plastic snap lock, and then into a decorated brown paper bag. Theylooked great.

The down side of the plastic bag was that the layered of the jar was lost.

you can buy bundles of different sized cellophane bags from the $2 shops
they look much nicer than ziplocks and you get quite a lot
tie with ribbon
would be good for fudge also

Thanx for your replies. The cowgirl cookies look yum - I will definitely be using them. I wondered about the plastic bags not retaining the layered look, the cellophane bags may be the best idea.

I think that cellophane bags will have the same problem of loosing the layers.

I tried the cowgirl look today in a cellophane bag, as i have a heap of them and it was looking pretty impressive, till i put in a layer of white sugar and Pfffft it spilled downall the edges a bit lol so will have another go in a jar this time and pack it tight, hope it works as its real pretty looking thanks for sharing the cookiesite.
