Quick Mix (Bisquick Substitute)

This recipe is a Bisquick look-a-like from the Make a Mix cookbook.  I love this book, and many of the mixes in it have been a staple on my shelf for years! You can substitute this for Bisquick in any recipe.

Quick Mix (Bisquick Substitute)
8 1/2 c. flour
4 Tbsp. baking powder
1 Tbsp. salt
2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 c. instant non-fat dry milk powder
2 1/4 c. vegetable shortening

In a large bowl, stir together all dry ingredients.  With a pastry blender, cut in shortening until mixture resembles cornmeal in texture.  Store in an air-tight container in a cool place, use within 12 weeks.  Makes about 13 c. mix.
