3.0 out of 5 stars Brownies were a little ...okay ALOT dry, May 13 2004
This review is from: Gifts in a Jar: Bars & Brownies (Spiral-bound)
I'm only writing this review to let you know the actual outcome of one of the recipes. I fell in love with Gifts In A Jar because they make great unique gifts. I made 4 jars today to give to teachers. Because this was my first time giving the gift to others I thought I'd try the recipe to taste what they would be making. They were VERY dry. Have one with a big glass of milk. The jars themselves came out very cute but I wished I had tasted the recipe before I decided to do them. I am a little disappointed. Just thought you'd like to know too. Try the recipe first and then decide if you want others to think this is your culinary best. I wish I had time to get another gift. Oh well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Two Tumbs Up!!, Jan 15 2004

I bought the entire series and was very impressed. I was tired of baking cookies every Christmas and thought I would try something new. I am SO glad that I gave "mixes" instead of stressing over baking. The responce I got was TWO THUMBS UP!

I made over two dozen mixes in two hours! The most difficult part was cutting the labels and decorations! I bought fabric that didn't fray, elastic jeweler's thread and gold bells. The books come with six receipe cards to attach to the jar!

The only suggesting I have is to buy the supplies at Costco and buy bulk. You'll need 10# more pounds than you think. I found myself running back to the store two times. For four dozen mixes (of cookies and bars) you'll need 40# of flour 20# sugar 15# brown sugar plus hoards of chopped walnuts and various "chips". I found that I needed far more white chocolate chips than anticipated. I experimented by adding different flavored chips (peanut butter, andes mint chips). Buy the WIDE mouth jars - you can buy a "funnel" at Walmart for $1.50. My local grocier ran out of wide mouths so I bought regular jars and had to make a paper funnel (pain in the...). Now-a-days, when you buy the wide mouth jars the lids are attached (no precleaning).

I live at high altitude and made adjustments to the cookie mixes, still they baked flat. For high altitude - stick to the bars and breads.

The only thing I would do differently: Photo copy the receipe cards so you don't have to recreate them on the computer. You can buy heavy stock paper (20#) and go to Kinkos and reprint them.

i think this is a great book because gifts now adays are to materialized people forget that gifts come from the heart so by having books on there bookshelves like this one or others that are similar people can do something for someone else without the worlds interference because it will be from the heart. everybody has to eat in todays world it very busy work, work workand no time to cook so people would allow themselves to let other people show them shortcuts in mealtime or goodies at the drop of a hat. I personally think that people would have more time to enjoy life. people in general enjoy homemade gifts versus dust collectors especially if it has to do with food it is something that can be passed on.
