Gallon Sack Cakes

I thought I would pass on a bit of info to you re: a way to save yourself some time. When you have some extra time, take 3 or 4 gallon zip lock bags and put your dry ingredients in them for your favorite recipes. Such as: cookies and cakes. For instance, when making chocolate chip cookies, bag your 2 1/4 cups flour, the 1 teas baking soda,1 teas salt, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 3/4 cup granulated sugar. Then label the bag and put it in the freezer if you are planning on not using it for a month or so. Then when you are ready to make a bag of the cookies, simply pull it out of the freezer that morning and when you get home at night, all you have to do is add 1 egg, 1 teas vanilla and your stick of margarine and 1 stick of butter. You are ready to bake. This really saves you so much time. Same for cakes, just mix your dry ingredients together in the bag, label them and freeze until ready to add your liquids. It seems like when you have the dry ingredients already mixed, it is simple and fast to whip up something on the spur of the moment. Try it and let me know what you think.
