Ingredients

1 cup Brown sugar

2 1/4 cups All-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon Baking soda

1/2 teaspoon Salt

3/4 teaspoon Ground cinnamon

3/4 cup Raisins

3/4 cup Chopped nuts

Preparation

Combine flour, salt, cinnamon and baking soda - 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.

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.
