Homemade Brownie Mix


Aaaaah, brownie mix. Convenient to have on hand and, for those of us who love to play with our food, fun to mix up for yourself. You can store it in quart-sized glass jars or zippered plastic bags and pull it out next time you need a quick dessert.
I found this terrific recipe over at Lynn's Kitchen Adventures blog. They bake into tasty, fudgey treats, which you can

shape into brownie pops

or, for your own amusement, simply leave in the jars and pose among the grape hyacinths

or the pretty pink tulips.
Because we are all about keeping ourselves amused.
And referring to ourselves as the royal "we."

  4. I agree, Mimi, these would be perfect for college kids. In fact, I have one home on spring break right now who's eyeing my brownie mix ;)

    Faith, I agree, fudgey (fudgy?) brownies are the best. Love this version.

    Joanne, yes. You really do need brownie pops in your life.

  7. Hi Lynn,
    Great idea! I, too, am trying to avoid processed and packaged things. This sounds awesome! Thanks for sharing.
    Plus, I am really a sucker for anything packaged in a jar and sitting among the flowers!

  9. Hi, Lynn! These pictures of the brownie mix "posing" in the garden are so artistic! That's why I'll never be a food stager -- brownies would always just be on a plate ... on a table ... MAYBE with a fork added for "decoration"! :)
