This peppermint brownie mix in a jar is the perfect holiday gift! Just a few simple ingredients are needed for this easy, festive and delicious homemade brownie mix.
Equipment
- Quart-Sized Wide mouth jar
- Funnel
- Spoon
Ingredients
Dry mix for jar:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ⅔ cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup Andes Peppermint crunch baking chips , or chopped Andes mints or chopped candy canes
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Ingredients to add later:
- 1 cup butter , melted
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
To assemble the mason jar brownies:
- In a quart-sized wide mouth jar, layer the following: 1 cup sugar, 2/3 cup cocoa powder, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup Andes Peppermint Crunch baking chips (or chopped Andes mints or chopped candy canes), 1 1/4 cups flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon baking powder. I'd recommend using a funnel to add the ingredients and then push each layer down with a spoon for easy packing. Make sure to really pack in each layer.
- Close the lid and tie the jar with ribbon and free printable tags.
To bake the brownies:
- When ready to bake, dump the contents into a bowl and then add 1 cup butter, 4 eggs and 2 teaspoons vanilla. Mix just until combined. Pour into a 9x13" pan and bake at 350°F for 25-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes clean.
