METHOD

Measure all the ingredients and set aside in separate bowls. Sift the flour and baking powder together. Roughly chop the almonds. Split the castor sugar in half to provide even looking layers.

Working carefully spoon the ingredients into the jar one at a time, gently shaking the jar in between each layer to level out the ingredients.

Seal the jar tightly then decorate with a few ribbons and two tags, one with a message for Mom and the other with the baking instructions for the brownies, see below.
