Cookie Guidelines

Because the first concern of the prison is safety and security, there are STRICT guidelines that must be followed – even regarding the task of cookie making. Please note that the requirements listed below are not meant to thwart you; they are intended to assure that all residents are treated equally and that no harm befalls them, the prison officials, or those going into the facility. For a printable version of these guidelines click here.

Note: Agape Cookie Recipes are available on this site.

· Acceptable types are chocolate chip, peanut butter, molasses, ginger, sugar, and oatmeal.

· Do not use any fruit (including raisins), nuts, candy (including M&M’s), icing, or sprinkles.

· Please think about healthy recipes as many of the residents have serious health Kairos-cookie-sizeconcerns, including diabetes.

– Cookies should be 2 – 2 ½ inches in diameter and about ½ in thick. Cookies must be round and fairly plain, no other shapes or decoration.

· Please let cookies completely cool before placing in quart-sized zip-lock freezer bags, 1 dozen per bag. If cookies are placed in the bag while still warm they gel together and become difficult to use.

· Label the type of cookies in the bag.

· After packaging, the cookies can be frozen if they are not going to be used in the next three days. Cookies can be brought to the Multi-purpose room on the following dates during the Church School hour.

Thank you for volunteering to provide this “bread” that will shine the light of God’s grace into the darkest corners of Greenville Correctional Center.

While baking these cookies please remember to Pray early and often!
