    Source of Recipe


    Genia

    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 cups brown sugar
    1 Tbsp. dried grated orange rind
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    3 teaspoons baking powder
    3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

    Recipe



    1. Combine flour, baking powder and orange rind - stir well. Place flour mixture in a clean mason jar. Pack down tight so everything will fit in the jar. (Use a spoon or a mallet.) Add other ingredients, one item at a time, packing each layer down.

    2. Put the lid on the jar and tie a ribbon around the lid. You can add a personalized label, if you wish. As an added touch, tie a wooden spoon to the lid with a piece of ribbon.

    3. Print out the following instructions on a gift card and tape the card to the jar:

    Whip 1 cup of butter or shortening until light and fluffy. Add 2 eggs, 1/2 cup sour cream and 1 tsp. vanilla and beat until mixed. Stir in the ingredients from this jar until well combined. Drop teaspoons of dough on a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 12 minutes at 350 degrees F. You
    can ice these with a thin icing made of 1 cup icing sugar and enough orange juice to make the icing spreadable.
