Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter chips
- 0.33 cup Powdered milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
Directions
Step 1
Layer the ingredients in a 1-quart (32-ounce) glass jar in the following order: all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, peanut butter chips, powdered milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, and packed brown sugar. Gently press down each layer with the back of a spoon or the base of a measuring cup to create distinct layers.
Step 2
Seal the jar tightly with a lid. Optionally, attach a ribbon or label with the baking instructions for gifting.
Step 3
Baking instructions for the gift recipient: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine the contents of the jar with 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup of melted butter (cooled slightly), and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
Step 5
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
Step 6
Bake for 16-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 7
Frost with your favorite frosting, if desired, and enjoy!
