Ingredients
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.33 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed

Directions
Step 1
In a clean 1-quart wide-mouth glass jar, layer the ingredients in the following order: all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, chocolate chips, and walnuts. Gently tamp down each layer to ensure a neat and compact look, but don't mix the layers.
Step 2
Seal the jar tightly and add a tag or label with the following instructions: 'Sand Art Brownies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, mix 1/2 cup melted butter, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Add the contents of this jar and stir until well combined. Pour into a greased 8x8-inch baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs. Cool before cutting into squares.'
Step 3
Store the jar in a cool, dry place until ready to gift or use.
