A classic dessert turns into a portable sweet when homemade brownie batter is baked in jars, leaving just enough room for a scoop of ice cream.

Ingredients

Servings 4

Butter, for greasing jars
Your favorite brownie mix, http://www.justataste.com/2008/11/new-classic-brownies/ or a boxed mix
Vanilla ice cream, optional

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 ºF.
Thoroughly grease the inside of four clean canning jars with butter. Set aside.
Prepare the brownie batter per your recipe's instructions.
Pour the batter into each of the greased jars, filling them one-fourth full. Tap the jars lightly on the counter to release any air bubbles. Place the filled jars on a cookie sheet, arranged so that they are not touching each other.
Bake the jars for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Why this Brownies In a Jar works for PCOS

A PCOS-friendly snack like this Brownies In a Jar should include protein or fat, not carbohydrates alone. Carb-only snacks (fruit, crackers, granola bars) spike blood sugar then crash it within 60-90 minutes, leaving you hungrier and more reactive to whatever comes next.
