2 cups sugar
1 cup cocoa powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Layer the ingredients, in order listed, in a quart jar.

Place a square of banana cloth and place over the jar lid.  Tie with a piece of jute or twine, attaching the instructions below.

Instructions to attach to the jar:
1 jar cowboy brownie mix
1 cup butter
4 eggs

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Grease and flour a 13 x 9-inch baking pan; set aside.

Using an electric mixer, cream the butter.  Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each.  Add the brownie mix and then beat by hand until smooth.  Spread the mixture into the prepared pan and bake 40 to 50 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
