July 13.1985 M ai.ii- ^ ~ ii J* - ! Cookbook dedicated to sinful chocolate If it's chocolate, and if it's a dessert, Maida Heatter has tried it. Not only has she tried it, she's perfected it and serves it up in "Maida Heatter's Book of Great Chocolate Desserts." Heatter, chocolatier extraordinaire, links palates and pleasure with a smorgasbord of chocolate delights, from hearty brownies and chocolate chip cookies to the more elegant souffles and flourless tortes. Heatter claims her favorite chocolate dessert is "whatever is chocolate and is near: mousse, Brownies, pots de creme, Bavarian." She goes to great lengths to secure outstanding chocolate recipes and modifies when necessary so all cooks may enjoy them. While some of her recipes may seem long, no cook needs to feel in­ timidated by them. Heatter gives explicit directions so nothing is left to chance, including positioning of the oven racks, the best time to make and serve a recipe, in­ cluding holding time, and how the dessert will look. (Heatter cautions cooks when a recipe may "sink" and offers simple remedies to adjust its appearance.) Recipes range in difficulty, including a recipe she learned as a ten- year-old in a home economics class and still bakes today, up to a twelve- layer Hungarian torte and Mushroom Meringues, petit fours she created for an international cooking Olympics that won first prize for originality. Heatter recounts the 1930 birth of the chocolate chip cookie in Massachusetts. According to Heatter, the recipe on the Nestle package is very close to the original, but not the same. Heatter owns a cookbook authored by the creator of the now-famous chocolate chip cookies, and claims her "Positively-The-Absolute-Best- Chocolate-Chip Cookies" more closely resembles the original. In the chapter on pies, Heatter questions the phrase "easy as pie," acknowledging that a pie crust takes "patience, practice, experience, and a thorough knowledge of the subject." Her careful instructions reduce the chance of error and answers questions other cookbooks ig­ nore. Heatter believes her recipe for Chocolate Pecan Pie is the best, and her technique produces a crispy bottom crust. Other pie recipes include a dense, moist fudge pie; Chocolate Chiffon Pie, airy, creamy, and dark; Gulf Coast Chocolate Pie, like a bavarian but made without whipped cream. Who can resist a brownie, especially a Maida Heatter brownie? This terrific, portable dessert is especially appropriate during picnic season. Heatter notes she could write a whole book on the subject of brownies, but cooks will have to content themselves with the 12 she serves up in the "Book of Great Chocolate Desserts." (Check her other cookbooks for more.) She begins with her now-classic brownie recipe that she began making as a child. She includes another recipe that she claims produces the "big­ gest, thickest, gooiest, chewiest, darkest, sweetest, mostest-of-the-most chocolate bars with an almost wet middle and a crisp-crunchy top." A more unusual brownie recipe incorporates black pepper, a combina­ tion Mexican cuisine has used for hundreds of years. Several confections in the "Book of Great Chocolate Desserts" are easy enough for a child, such as an uncooked cream cheese mixture called "Phudge." Recipes for chocolate raisin clusters and rocky roads can be donetof tittldren, too. < More elegant candies are "French Chocolate Mint Truffles," and "Chocolate-Covered Strawberries" (both easy, with very explicit direc­ tions). Heatter's cakes are especially tempting: a prized, heirloom recipe kept secret by a family for many years; a complete history and detailed direc­ tions for creating Sacher Torte; and an adaptation of the old Viennese classic, Black Forest Cherry Torte. Heatter names one cake "FBI Chocolate Layer Cake" because J.' Edgar Hoover threatened Heatter's mother with an FBI investigation if he didn't get the recipe. The book also includes hot and cold sauces and drinks, chocolate decorations, fondues, and which chocolates work well with what recipes. "Maida Heatter's Book of Great Chocolate Desserts" is available at B. Dal ton Bookstore in Spring Hill Mall, West Dundee.

QUEEN \ June Cavarretta Herald staff writer The only hazard with ice cream is obvious -- too many helpings might lead to too many extra pounds. Baskin-Robbins has gone as far as developing a "Special Diet" ice cream which has half the usual calories. One scoop of non-diet vanilla is loaded with 147 of the little devils. The Mullans haven't been afflicted yet, but are cautious when it comes to sampling their wares. "We test the ice cream all the time," said Don, adding that those tests are in small samples. His employees are required to taste every flavor so they can answer customers' inquires regarding a new product's taste. 1 If putting on extra weight is the only drawback to ice cream, it's one we can all live with. So let's honor American's favorite desert thisweek by visiting our favorite parlors. 1 As for this writer, he'll take a scoop of old, reliable vanilla. It may seem boring, but I'm not sure if I'm quite ready for malted milk ball ice cream.

Mix the seeds with coffee grounds to help eliminate cluster of the seeds. Harvest when they are medium-sized, about two to three inches in diameter, usually in late summer. Another favori te among > gardeners are carrots. A few of the recommended varieties are Scarlet Nantes, Royal Chantenay and Danvers Half Long. Carrots are slow to germinate in hot weather, so to save space, mix radish seeds with the carrots. Along with these fall crops, there are other vegetables that can be planted for fall harvest: a few of them are spinach, beets, swiss chard, mustard, corn and beans. To ensure success with your fall crops, sow seeds at one- and-a-half to two-times the recom­ mended depth, and cover with a light mulch to keep the soil cool and to prevent crusting. Many vegetables can be sown now for fall harvest with great success, according to Cindy Garber, summer horticulturist for the Universi ty of I l l inois Cooperative Extension Service. After July 1, begin to sow Chinese cabbage, radish, turnip and carrot seeds. Chinese cab­ bage tends to grow better and more vigorously as a fall crop rather than as a spring crop. It can be harvested when it is three- to four-inches tall for salads or left alone to form heads. Herald photo by Amy K. Brown Sweet Street iee cream chef Mark Mullan uses a batch freezer to make cantaloupe flavored ice cream. The ice cream is then put in a 40 below zero freezer for 24 hours. Since they grow so quickly, radishes are a favorite among many gardeners. Icicle and all- season varieties work quite well for the fall garden because they usually withstand heat better than the early maturing varieties. Turnips should not be forgotten. For ease of weeding, sow seeds in
