“Perfect for when you receive that surprise present or visitor. You can whip this hand made present out and look like a kitchen genius!”
— Cindy Bunt

Cookies in a Jar:

1/3 cup of white sugar

1/3 cup of brown sugar

3/4 cup of plain flour 1/2 tsp of bicarb soda

1 cup of chocolate chips (or cranberries and oats, or sultanas and choc chips, it's easy to sub)

- Prep all your ingredients if making more than one jar, production line style, in a line and in bowls for easy extraction.

-Get a funnel in your jar and put in order as follows:

1/3 cup of white sugar

1/3 cup of brown sugar

3/4 cup of plain flour and 1/2 teaspoon of bicarb (or just 3/4 cup of s/r flour)

1/2 cup each of white and dark chocolate chips, or which ever combination you like to do.

- Write on a card and attach:

Add 1/2 cup of melted butter and 1 egg. Mix and bake 1 tbs of mix in a 180 degree oven for 8-10 mins.

Also makes the perfect Teacher’s present, and if it doesn’t get gifted out…… come the new year, just make it for yourself. You deserve it too!

xx Cindy

Cindy Bunt is the owner and heart behind The Post and Rail, a café, providore, cooking and art school located in a beautifully restored heritage-listed building at 58 Riddoch Street, Penola.

With a deep love of food, creativity and meaningful connection, Cindy created The Post and Rail as a place where people can slow down and feel genuinely welcome. What began as a vision to honour the building’s rich history has grown into a vibrant space filled with good food, shared stories and hands-on experiences.

Cindy’s approach is grounded in generosity and authenticity. The café celebrates seasonal produce and thoughtful cooking, while the providore showcases carefully chosen goods made to be enjoyed and shared. Her cooking classes, art workshops and intimate events are designed to bring people together — sisters, mothers and daughters, friends and travellers — creating memorable moments around the table and beyond.

Known for her warmth and attention to detail, Cindy has a natural talent for curating experiences that feel both special and relaxed. Every element of The Post and Rail reflects her belief that hospitality is about connection, creativity and care.

Proudly rooted in Penola and the Limestone Coast, Cindy continues to nurture The Post and Rail as a place of community, creativity and timeless hospitality.
