Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Powdered milk
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This ensures that the dry ingredients are evenly distributed and there are no lumps.
Step 2
Add the powdered milk to the dry ingredients and whisk everything together thoroughly. The powdered milk will allow this cake mix to make a cake by just adding water and a few wet ingredients later.
Step 3
Once well mixed, transfer the cake mix into an airtight container or a resealable gallon-sized bag. Label the container with the name and date, and store it in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.
Step 4
Optional: Include instructions for how to prepare the cake on the label. For example: 'To make a cake: Combine 1 batch of cake mix with 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and 1 cup water. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30–35 minutes in a greased 9×13-inch pan.'
