Cornbread
You get the feeling every
time you serve hot, homemade
i
corn bread — that twinge of
conscience that says, “ 1 really
should do this more often.”
Making your own Com Bread
M ix can absolve any guilt
feelings — com bread, com
muffins and com sticks from
this M ix are so easy and
economical ygu can have them
as often as you wish. The
M ix makes 5 batches of com
bread, costs only pennies to
prepare and w ill keep 4 to
6 months in a covered con
tainer at room temperature.
To use, spoon it into a dry
measuring cup and level off
with a spatula.
F o r the basic M ix, stir
together 8 cups (2 -lb . bag)
enriched
self-rising
com
meal, 2 cups enriched self
rising flour and 3/4 cup sugar.
Cut in 1 cup shortening on
low speed of electric m ixer
(o r
by hand with pastry
blender) until mixture resem
bles coarse crumbs. Store.
To make your basic batter,
measure 2 1/2 cups M ix Into
bowl. Blend together 2 eggs
and 3/4 cup m ilk. Add liquid
all at once to M ix and stir
until well blended. If neces
sary, add more milk to make
a medium-thick batter. For
com bread, turn Into w ell-
greased 8 - inch square pan; for
12 com muffins, fill greased
muffin cups 2/3 full; for 14
com sticks, fill greased corn
stick sections level with tip
of pan.
Bake in preheated
425 degree oven 25 ot 30
minutes for com bread (15 to
20 minutes for com muffins
and com sticks), or until
golden brown.
Here’ s a vacation driving tip.
Be doubly alert when you’ re
driving at dusk or dawn since
highway dangers are greater
during these periods. In the
early morning pre-dawn hours
be especially watchful for the
drunken d river.

Most people-or at least those
uninitiated in the art and tun of
fondue
cookery— generally
associate
fondue
cooking
strictly with cheese.
It may have started that
way with the Swiss many years
ago, but fondue cooking now
embraces meats and desserts
as well as cheese. In fact,
there is no better way to top
off a meal than with chocolate
fondue. It adds a unique touch
to anything from a ladies'
bridge party to a sm all-fry
birthday party.
Chocolate fondue lends itself
to almost lim itless possibili
ties for “ dunkables.” Almost
any fresh fru it tastes better
when it’ s surrounded by melt
ed chocolate. This would In
clude
bannannas,
apples,
cherries and grapes.
You'll also want to try
pineapple chunks, mandarin
orange slices and dates as
well as marshmallows or bite-
size pieces of angel food cake.
Here's a basic M ilk Choco
late Fondue:
M ILK CHOCOLATE FONDUE
(8 to 12 servings)
2 11 1/2 ounce packages m ilk
chocolate chips
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon mult extract or
1 to 2 lbs. creme de men the,
optional
Combine chocolate chips
and cream in fondue pot. Set
heat control at dessert setting
and s tir until chocolate melts.
Add mint flavoring if desired.
S tir until blended.
F or serving, spear fresh
fruit tidbits with fondue fork
and swirl in chocolate.
