This version produces yummy brownies that are more chewy and less cake-like than other "in a jar" mixes. This year I made a dozen jars for gifts!

Looks great, tastes awful! I made these last night, and they are so dense and cakey, I can't even bring myself to finish the pan - and that's saying a lot! Sorry! I really wanted to like these!

    Made this one up for a pre-Christmas bake sale at the nursing home I work at...I DID change the choc chips to 1 cup of peanut butter chips for something a little different...It looked nice in the jar and within 10 minutes it had sold for a whopping $8! Thank you for sharing this recipe!

    Fits perfectly in a liter jar which I topped off with some walnuts. Very classy, prettylooking jar. I hope it tastes as good as it looks and I'm sure it will. These are going to French people who will be surprised and I hope delighted by the idea.

    Delicious brownies. I thought I'd make these to try before I made them up as gifts and they are very yummy and easy to put together. My 3 year old helper and I had heaps of fun mixing and making these! Lorac I hope you are going to help me clean my kitchen!!
