A recipe I collected from the past: HOMEMADE BISQUICK: Master Mix developed at Purdue University. For cookies, muffins, chocolate and yellow cake, pancakes, waffles, coffee cakes, gingerbreads and biscuits. This quantity will yield 29 cups of mix. This is enough to make one batch of every item given below. Posted in Sugar's group years ago at Santa's Workshop https://groups.io/org/groupsio/Santas-Workshop
