Easy recipe to put together. Of course I have not tasted it. It makes a pretty gift. Thank you! I made this for the For Your Consideration tag game on Food Friends And Fun forums.

This was easy to put together and I like that you don't have to stuff the jar to gt it all in. I made with white-whole wheat flour and the rest of the ingredients listed. Will be giving to a friend hosting a Halloween Party; she LOVES gingersnaps! Made for 123Hits.
