satisfy the most particular palate, whether young or just young

extra eggnog leftover from-last night's Holiday party or Sunday's
brunch. If you're out of the real thing, instant eggnog flavoring,
added to whole milk, can be substituted for dairy eggnog in the
recipe And drop cookies are easy for the littlest hands to master.
Invite all volunteers to pitch in with the preparation, then
watch the pleased young faces as they serve their contribution
to a festive meal. Mothers will be pleased, too. Each Nogaroon,
made with enriched flour, provides children with three B-vit
amins. thiamine, niacin and riboflavin, plus the mineral, iron

A Torte By Any Other Name
A torte by any other name would look as magnificently lovely.
It would cause as much comment, and the flavor, especially if
it's chocolate, would be as luscious.
Apricot-Chocolate Torte. a hauntinglv delectable combination
of 'flavors, is a fooler, the secret of the lady in the kitchen. Who
could guess, who could know, that this torte is made easily with
a good chocolate cake mix and. convenient, versatile, sparkling
apricot preserves for the filling?
If you're a purist, bake your own but fldpi two layer choco
late cake for tne base. Either way, the cake layers are split after
baking and cooling, making four thin layers. The fresh fruit
flavor of the apricot preserves, spooned right from the jar, blends
beautifully with the rich chocolate to make the |*?rfect filling.
The crowning glory, a smooth, rich chocolate frosting, drizzles
from the top. Ah, a torte by any other name .
Apricot Chocolate Torte
1 (1 -pound, 3- ounce) package 1 tablespoon butter
chocolate cake mix 1 cup sifted confectioners'
1 cup apricot preserves sugar
1 square (1-ounce) unsweetened teaspoon vanilla
chocolate 2 tablespoons boiling water

(8-incn) pans. Cool and split each layer (with knife or string)
to make 4 thin layers.
Spread the bottbm 3 layers with apricot preserves; stack and
top with remaining layer. Melt chocolate and butter over hot
water. Add confectioners' sugar and vanilla; blend well. Add
boiling water. Spread over top of cake and drizzle down the sides.
