PEANUT BUTTER BROWNIE MIX

Peanut Butter Brownie Mix image

I discovered this recipe in our local newspaper, and when I gave it a try, my family loved it. While you can pack the dry ingredients into any kind of quart-sized container, a glass jar lets the pretty layers show. Cover an ordinary canning-jar lid with special fabric to customize the gift for an occasion or the season. -Lynn Dowdall, Perth, Ontario
