Illvitrtini mIoi4 t K rf,itl " " Ice Cream Fills Almond Crisp Dessert In most sandwiches it's the filling rather than the bread that is more interesting. But the filling and "bread" share the limelight in "Almond Crisp Ice Cream Cakes," a modern varia tion on old-fashioned ice cream sandwiches. Slices of vanilla Ice cream are placed between cooky-like crisps made with crunchy sliv ered almonds, sugar, butter and flour for an ideal warm-weather dessert. Speaking of summer weather, almonds eaten out-of-hand on hot days are important energy boosters, rich in B vitamins, calcium and iron and with as much body-building protein as lean meat, milk or eggs. Store them In the refrigerator. 1 Almond Crisp Ice Cream Cakes V4-cup toasted slivered almonds Vi-cup lifted all-purpose flour Vi teaspoon salt Vi-cup sugar V4-cup butter or margarine 2 tablespoons light cream 1 quart firm vanilla ice cream Combine all ingredienti ex cept ice cream in saucepan. Cook until mixture begins to bubble; remove from heat and stir briskly for a few seconds. Drop by teaspoonfuls, about 4 inches apart, on greased, lightly-floured baking sheet. Bake only 4 or 5 crisps at a time in 375-degree (moderately hot) oven 5 to 6 minutes. Cool 2 minutes on baking sheet before lifting with spatula to waxed paper-covered racks. (If crisps harden before they can be removed from sheet, re heat in oven a few seconds to soften.) Slice ice cream into 8 equal parts. Sandwich one slice of ice cream between 2 crisps for each serving. Drizzle with chocolate syrup, if desired. Makes 8 servings (and 16 crisps). Shading Sunshine A bright summer sun can fade many fabrics, so it's a good idea to keep your furniture away from the window, or the shades drawn, during the long summer days. You needn't worry about your window sills or adjacent floors, however, if they're surfaced with ceramic tile. Real tile's colors are com pletely fadeproof and they cant be damaged, either, if pelted by a sudden summer shower. mi ..t S -sp-v A'.v o Ppoyjc Celebrate June birthdays with' foods to match the "Jewel of the 1 CO! lo jhe Month" in this case the pearl.
