Basic Cake Mix, Homemade

Gather the ingredients. Mix the salt, sugar, baking powder, and flour.

Grate the butter and fold into the flour mixture. Now grating the butter is not what we did in class, it's what we call now a hack. We used to cube and cut the shortening into the flour.

Separate into 3 ziploc bags of equal measurements. Close to 3-2/3 cups each bag.

Use or freeze in the ziploc bags. Each measurement makes a double layer cake 8 inches or one 913 cake. I hope you enjoy!
