First a few things about Sand Art Brownies:
1.These are the best brownies you’ve ever eaten!
2. You don’t have to fancy the packaging up like this. At Christmas I keep a few on hand for unexpected guests. But you can just use the recipe without making this presentation.
3. You can make them as treats any time of year, just omit the red and green sugar.
4. They make great Housewarming gifts or just little Treats!
5. They’re easy to make.
6. If you’re not a cook, you don’t have to cook anything. Just package it and give away!

Hi1 I am visiting from Family Home and Life. This is such a lovely gift in such a charming presentation! I am beginning to see how much fun it is to pack food and flowers into Mason jars! I expect to use your recipe in the future. Thank you!
