dessert mix

Just add water

A dessert mix is a prepackaged blend of dry ingredients—flour, sugar, flavorings, leavening—that simplifies making cakes, brownies, puddings, or other sweets at home.

The cook typically adds wet ingredients like eggs, oil, or milk: I made brownies from a dessert mix.

Sometimes called a baking mix when the product requires an oven.
