Guest guest Posted November 24, 2000 Report Share Posted November 24, 2000 I saw this in the December issue of Ladies Home Journal magazine. It looks like it would make a lovely holiday gift. You put the dry ingredients in a jar, and decorate as desired. The recipient bakes the actual brownies. If anyone tries this, (or just tries making the brownies from the recipe,) let me know how it turns out.
