Serves: 24
Yield: 2 dozen brownies
The layering of the ingredients in this jar reminds me of colored sand layered in glass bottles. And the brownies themselves are absolutely scrumptious.
JAR INGREDIENTS
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup butter, softened

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 13-x-9-inch baking pan, and set aside.
2. Place all of the jar ingredients in a medium-sized bowl, and stir until well combined. Set aside.
3. Place the butter and eggs in a large bowl, and cream with an electric mixer set on low speed or with a fork.
4. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, and blend with a mixer set on low speed or with a spoon until well combined.
5. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges are light brown in color.
6. Cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars. Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
CREATING THE JAR
1. Wash and thoroughly dry a 1-quart wide-mouth canning jar.
2. Layer the ingredients in the jar as shown below, pressing firmly with a flat-bottomed object, such as a tart tamper or the bottom of a narrow glass, after each addition. Make the layers as level as possible.
TOP of the jar
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
BOTTOM of the jar
3. Secure the lid, and decorate as desired (see The Basics: 06-Creating the Jars; DECORATING THE JAR). Attach the instructions for making the cookies found in the Gift Jar Tags chapter.

I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Organizer and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.
My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.
I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!
Thank you!!
