Can you freeze the homemade Bisquick mix?
Yes you can.
I just want to thank you for the recipe to use the mix to make biscuits, You are the first person I found that has done that.
I do not have room in my refrigerator to store anything. Could I mix in everything but the butter and keep it shelf stable? Then when I make it cut in the butter and milk at the same time? It would still save me a lot of time this way as well.
Yes, I think that would work great!
