SNAPPY FACTS
Bake in a slow (325-degree) oven
40 to 50 minutes until well browned.
Serve warm with top milk or
whipped cream.
Two favorite, novel pies come In
for their share of honors as desserts.
Notice the use of just the single
crust to save fats:
Easy Dessert: You need go no
further than a bowlful of luscious,
rosy-pink strawberries, plain or sug­
ared with cream for a perfect sum­
mery dessert.
Desserts are nutritious but they
are served mainly for morale.
Fruits, sparkling

1 ous colors, give a
! fitting close to a
heavy meal. On
the other hand,
heavier desserts
give a rich flavor
to an otherwise
simple meal.
Desserts take care of the sweet
tooth, that craving for something ut­
terly delicious. No longer do they
require only sugar. Substitutes have
been developed that give pies, cakes
and puddings all the goodness of
former times but do not dip into the
sugar canister with a big scoop.
Desserts can give you part of
the important protein requirement
for the day if they’re made with
cereals. Add fruits to cereal and
you have a nourishing as well as
appetite-appealing dish.
