What are sand cookies?
And Rouge, do you have a particular recipe for pancakes in a jar?

We did sand cookies for preschool teachers last year & it was a huge hit, some even asked for the recipes so their kids could make them for their teachers!!

Katie, do you remember the sand art jars, basically coloured sand layer in a jar to look pretty? It's the same idea, but with the different coloured cookie ingredients

I did the brownies last year, my Mum asked me if I could re-fill the jar for her for Mothers Day I forgot so I might do a few different ones for her this year.

I got swing top jars from Coles last year, they were $3.50 each and a perfect size and re-usable.

Great idea but do you think the jar would travel well or would the ingredients shake up if it was moved around a bit in the car?

[DaintreeDream]

They travel well, you generally get a jar that fit amost near perfect amount of ingredients (the recipe should tell you what sized jar to get). The ingredients do move a little like the flour may mix a little with the cocoa but it all adds to the effect. It all gets tipped into a bowl together to mix and cook anyway so it doesn't matter to much.
