Saturday Morning Roundup – Mason Jar Desserts

Is there anything more adorable than desserts packed up in tiny glass jars?

What is it about those jars that just make us get all big eyed and in goofy grinned? Is it their ability to be portable, or the idea of having a single serving of dessert all for ourselves? Either way they are just too cute to pass up.

I have scoured the internet to bring you some fun treats, desserts and gifts that are packed up real cute in Mason Jars!

This first one comes from your’s truly {so I guess I didn’t have to scour that hard to find it} It’s a real tasty Sweet Cherry Crisp made perfect for single servings of comfort. Make ahead and freeze then cook when you want one!

Shaina from Food for My Family wrote the book about sweets in a jar. No seriously! She wrote a WHOLE book called Desserts in a Jar! So she obviously knew what she was doing when she created this clever gift giving Gingerbread Cookie Mix in a Jar.

Kitchen Meets Girl has the right idea by adding chocolate and mint together for this Mint Brownie Grasshopper Pie in a Jar. I want to stock pile these in my freezer for the rest of my life.
