Make Your Own Brownie Mix
Next time your daughter comes home from school and says, "I need to bring brownies to school tomorrow" - you won't have to race out to the store if you have this easy brownie mix in your pantry. Stir together 5 simple ingredients and in less than 5 minutes you'll have enough brownie mix to make 7 pans of brownies! Did I mention that those 7 pans of brownies will cost less than $5 total! P.S. - You'll be able to pronounce every ingredient in these brownies...try that with a store bought mix! Thanks to my friend Michelle for sharing this fabulously frugal recipe to make your own brownie mix.

How could we make just a single (mug) serving?
