Decorative Brownies in a Jar Recipe

Follow these instructions to make brownies in a jar gift and then print out the recipe card to include.

Jar Ingredients:

  • 1 1/8 cup flour
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup vanilla chips
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • * walnuts

Filling the Jar:
Layer the ingredients in a quart size canning jar in the order listed. I used a small funnel and it worked pretty good for most of the ingredients! The walnuts are optional. If you use the walnuts, use enough to fill the jar to the top. If you do not use the walnuts, use extra chocolate and vanilla chips so the jar is full to the top. Pack down all ingredients, especially the brown sugar!

Print Out the Recipe:
