Preparation

Step 1

Mix together flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl, then transfer it to a Lock & Lock of your choice. Layer the remaining ingredients in the order listed above (except for the candy-coated peanut butter pieces, which should be stored in a separate container or small baggie).

Be sure to press each layer firmly in place before adding the next layer. And, remember to wipe the insides of the container with a dry paper towel after adding the cocoa powder, so the other layers will show through.
