Recipes in a Jar
These make great gifts for friends and family for every occasion from Christmas to birthdays, to mothers day's and even just a pick me up for someone who is feeling down.
For these recipes you will need a jar that holds around 1 quart or 1.130 litres.
If your jar is airtight add the ingredients directly otherwise place them into
an airtight or ziplock bag and attach the recipe card instructions.
Tie the whole jar up with some cellophane or add some curling ribbons and a bow to finish off this gift
Jar Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar
1 1/2 cups crushed potato chips
2/3 cup chopped pecans

1 teaspoon baking powder
In a small bowl, stir together the flour and baking powder. Layer ingredients in
order given in a 1 quart "wide mouth" canning jar. It will be a tight fit. Press
