Great Recipe!

I found this recipe published by Leslie Probert on www.ce.byu.edu and I am so excited to have it. In our family we kind of live on Bisquick. My kids love pancakes more than almost anything in this world so I am pumped to have a "food storage version" of the mixture. It is multi-purposed and can be very helpful.

9 c. white flour 1 ½ T. sugar
3 c. instant dry milk 4 t. cream of tartar
2 ½ c. powdered shortening 2 t. baking soda

Sift shortening, cream of tarter and baking soda into rest of ingredients; stir well. Keep in covered container; use in 10-12 weeks. Makes 24 cups.

Super Quick Pancakes:
3½ c. Super Quick Mix 2 T. dried whole egg, sifted

Magnificent Muffins:
