Copy tag (Make one) Make brownie mix. Put brownie mix in a large zip-lock bag and then in the brown bag. Fold bag on angle as shown. (The pix shows that the front left corner is folded down several times till it is about 4 inches shorter than the upper right corner). Add tag and ribbon. Gift idea shared with us by Sharon DIRECTIONS: Ribbon 10 x 11 inch zip-lock plastic bag Copy of tag (in this case, make a cute tag large enough to leave message) Brown paper lunch bag Ingredients for making the brownie mix. You will need:

3/4 Cup Cocoa	1/2 Tsp salt
1 1/2 Cup flour	2 Cup sugar
1/2 Tsp baking soda

Mix cocoa and soda together well. Add other dry ingredients and follow directions on the tag. (tag looks like it has been glued to the front...ribbon I guess you just tie and place on bag. ( I would be tempted to punch 2 holes in the folded top edge and lace the ribbon thru and tie to keep bag closed....just my 2 cents!)
