3B LIFE/ tClie Ctarlotte $at Thursday, February 9, 2006 Ultimate presentation of chocolate fudge Bundt cake Wt: ASSOCIATED PRESS BATON ROUGE, La. -It’s a sweet piece of history, the re-creation of which can still impress guests at a party At the Junior League of Baton Rouge’s annual Sustainer Coffee in 1990, Mary Jane Smith and the late Genie Harrison intro duced their Five Pounds of Fudge The recipe was a traditional flidge made with semisweet chocolate chips and marsh mallow creme. But rather than pour the fudge into a regular baking or jellyroll pan as specified in the recipe, they poured the hot fudge into a well-oiled Bimdt pan. Instead of serving neatly cut squares of fudge, they served the whole Bundt fudge in the same way that one would serve a cake. It was the hit of the party Smith and Harrison arranged their Bundt fudge on a cake stand, decorated the center with flowers and placed a knife on the table for guests to cut individual pieces. The Bundt fudge was popu lar with guests, but occasion ally it caused anxiety for cooks. Sometimes the fudge just wouldn’t come out of the pan. One local cook discovered that rather than use one of the heavy, cast-iron Bundt pans, the recipe worked bet ter if she used an inexpen sive, thin Bundt pan. With a thin pan, the fudge slips out after a minute or two when the pan is placed in a sink in 2 or 3 inches of hot water. Five Pounds of Pudge is a big recipe. It’s perfect for a cocktail buffet when you are serving a lot of people. If you want to serve the fudge at a smaller party use two small Bundt pans. Divide the fudge into the pans, serve one and fieeze the second for later Pinch of salt 18 ounces semisweet choco late chips 7-ounce jar marshmallow 1 tablespoon vanilla 4 cups chopped pecans remove, place in a few inches of hot watei* in the sink and turn onto a serving plattei*.

One other tip to remember is that this is a cool-weather recipe. Don’t serve it outside in 100-degree weather, or you may find that you have fudge sauce instead of fudge.

The singer’s fast-paced song, “Run It,” seemed to make some of Candler’s adult students want to run away “Mom, you’re confusing me,” said Stacy Humble Dellinger, laughing as she watched her mother, Susan Hiunble, stomp her feet off beat. “Well don’t watch me, then,” Susan Humble said, throwing her arms in the air. “I’m con fusing myself” Much more difficult than the children’s routine, Candler instructed her adult ■ students to wave an invisible lasso over their heads, slap their knees, bend forward. way “Can’t you just feel that wind moving under your arms?’ Candler asked, mov ing her arms up and down. “No, but I feel that muscle pulling in the back of my leg,” Susan Humble immediately replied.
