Mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside. Layer ingredients in order in a one quart wide mouth canning jar. Make sure you pack all ingredients down firmly before adding the flour mixture-it will be a tight fit. NOTE: you may need to wipe down the inside of the jar after you add the cocoa powder.
