Description

Ingredients
- 175g Light Brown Soft Sugar
- 275g Plain Flour
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tbsp Cornflour
- 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
- 150g Chocolate Chips
- 150g M&Ms
Instructions
- Press the light brown soft sugar into the bottom of a 750ml jar using a flat tool to compress it firmly.
- Whisk the plain flour, baking powder, cornflour, and sea salt together in a separate bowl, then gently spoon the mixture over the sugar layer.
- Add a layer of chocolate chips followed by a final layer of M&Ms to fill the jar.
- Seal with an airtight lid and attach a label instructing the recipient to cream 125g butter with 1 egg, mix in the jar contents, and bake at 180ºC for 11-13 minutes.
Notes
To ensure the best visual appeal, use a funnel when adding the flour layer to keep the sides of the jar clean. If gifting in a humid environment, consider adding a small food-grade silica packet to the very top to maintain the dryness of the ingredients until they are ready to be baked.
