Kids really get into the gift-giving spirit and here’s a delicious one they can make themselves (with just a little help from you). They’ll feel so proud, and just think of what they’ll learn!
Materials
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1-quart canning jar with lid
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- Child’s blunt-tip safety scissors
- Fabric (choose seasonal fabric if giving a holiday gift)
- Ribbon
- Pen
- Decorative tag
- 1/2 cup butterscotch or peanut butter chips (optional)
Instructions
- Mix the flour with the salt in a small bowl.
- Help your child layer the ingredients in the jar, beginning with the flour/salt mixture, continuing in order, and ending with the white chocolate chips. (You may not need as many chips if there's little room left in the jar.)
- Screw on the lid.
- Cut a circle of fabric about 4 inches wider than the diameter of the jar.
- Tie the fabric circle around the lid with ribbon.
- Write
the following directions on a decorative tag:
Sand Art Brownies: Combine the contents of the jar with 1 teaspoon vanilla, 3/4 cup vegetable oil, and 4 eggs. Beat until just mixed. Pour into a greased 9-by-13-inch pan. Bake at 350ºF for 25–30 minutes. - Attach the tag to the jar.
- If you like, substitute butterscotch or peanut butter chips for either of the chocolate chips.
