Total weight: 1 pound 2 oz
Weight per serving: 3 oz
Total Servings: 6

Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa (baking cocoa)
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tablespoons milk powder (or soy powder)
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (or carob chips)
1/4 cup walnuts
12 teaspoons of oil added on the trail. (2 teaspoons per serving)
12 tablespoons of water added on the trail (2 tablespoons per serving)

At home:
In a bowl, combine flour, cocoa, sugar, baking powder, salt and milk. Once fully mixed add chocolate chips and nuts. Place 1/2 cup of mix into each of 6 quart-sized freezer bags. Each bag will equal one serving. Carry oil and water separately.

On the trail:
To make one serving, heat 1 teaspoon of oil in pan at LOW heat. Add a second teaspoon of oil and 2 tablespoons of water to one bag of brownie mix. Knead in bag. Once the pan is hot, scoop small spoon-sized mounds onto pan (or cut out a corner of the bag and squeeze your mounds). Cook until bottoms are browned and tops are no longer shiny. Flip, flatten and brown the other side.
