iGuess What’s Cooking By REBA MITCHELL This week it’s my specialty; of course, it’s chocolate. It will suit the crowd to a “T”. It’s chocolate at its best and all you’ll have left over is the plate. Mrs. Helen Gaskins brought this to me to Vanceboro several years ago from S.C. Judy Lane’s Chocolate Cake m Ipk. Chocolate Cake Mix Prepare and bake as ||rected on the package in 2 yers. Cool completely. Slice the layers in half to make four. Mix 1 large container frozen whipped topping mix (which has been thawed) with H box powdered sugar or enough to make it of spreading consistency. Spread between the layers. The Heat’s On Frost top and side with your favorite chocolate frosting and garnish with chopped nuts. TIPS You may bake this cake in a tube pan and slice into thin layers as you are ready to spread the whipped topping mix. You may also add chopped nuts to the whipped topping or sprinkle on top of each layer. Some people prefer to make cakes from scratch. Some times cakes are imperfect. Course grain is one of the faults. Some of the reasons are Butter type cakes - Excessive leavening - Not enough creaming - Under mixing - Over temperature too low. Reg. cake flour is the best flour to use. If you have an older friend and relative living alone, remember that it is important to check on him or her daily during hot weather. “The old can easily fall victim to heat-related medical problems. These include heat stroke, heat cramps and heat exhaustion,” says Dr. Leo Hawkins, extension human development specialist. North Carolina State University. These disorders could be serious or even fatal if not treated promptly. The Cold Drinks Are in the Sink By JOAN GOSPER NC State University A freezer works more efficiently when it is full. It also helps if the door isn’t being opened frequently during warm, humid weather. If you do a lot of home freezing, last summer’s bounty is probably almost gone. Dr. Nadine Tope, extension foods and nutrition specialist. North Carolina State University, has a way to fill the freezer and to keep the kids from opening the refrigerator door a dozen times a day for a cold drink. Fill clean plastic jugs with water or fruit juice, and put them in the freezer. Be sure to leave enough room so that the liquid will be able to expand when it freezes without splitting the jug. Each morning, take a frozen jug from the freezer and set it in the sink. It will thaw gradually throughout the day, and the children can get their own cold drinks without opening the refrigerator door. Under Pressure? When the pressure is on, at work or at home, some people go overboard trying to remove stress. “The person who begins jogging, meditating and scheduling regular relaxation exercises with grim determi nation is like a yaupon tree on the beach trying to avoid the wind,” says Dr. Leo Hawkins, extension human development specialist. North Carolina State University. Such intense efforts to avoid or handle stress can add to the total load. “Avoiding all is a hopeless task. There seems to be no substitute for affection, communication and com panionship. These don’t prevent stress, but they do help us sail through stressful storms,” Dr. Hawkins says.
