Cranberry Brownie Mix in a Jar

All the ingredients get layered in the jar and you can dolly up the jar with ribbons and attach the instructions.

This jar makes 24 brownies
Baking time 30 to 40 minutes


What you need:

300g self raising flour
2t salt
400g organic sugar
110g cocoa powder
400g organic pecan nuts
200g cranberries.

Combine the flour and the salt. Pour half the flour into a jar that is clean and dry. Press down firmly. Add half the sugar and again press down firmly. Add half the cocoa powder. Pour in the pecan nuts and cranberries, making sure they are evenly layered in the jar. Continue layering using the remaining flour, sugar and cocoa powder. Place a doily over the lid and secure with a pretty ribbon. On the ribbon attach the baking instructions.

How to Bake to Brownies:

Empty the jar of brownie mix into a large bowl and mix well. Add 345g butter and 8 free-range eggs, lightly beaten. Mix until blended. Spread the batter into a lightly greased or sprayed baking tin. Bake at 180'C for 30-40 minutes. (Use a baking pin to test whether or not they are ready). Cool in the tin then cut into equal squares. Dust with icing sugar and serve.
