Love those mixes!! Used to use home-made mixes all the time when children were small. Had a cookie mix that could be adapted to loads of recipes, drop cookies, rolled cookies or bars. Do very little cooking now. Hubby loves to cook and I hate it, so I fill the wood-box while he cooks dinner. Finally convinced him to make his own mixes and he is quite innovative. Will show him these mixes. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, I like the mixes also, and still have the first set that I tore out of a ladies magazine, at least 50 years ago.

I even make several mixes for my bread machine, it is simple, line up a half dozen containers or bags and put the stuff in it, as you have it out.

Then all I need to add is the yeast and liquids.

If i use the bags, about 4 will fit in a large coffee can, so they are not exposed to air and splitting open.

I had an ice box recipe that I tripled and made with many different added items, nuts, anise seeds, etc.
