$25,000 PRIZE RECIPE
I
..FAMILY OF GOOD COOKS . . . Helen Weston with husband,
Sam, and two young sons, who also like to cook.

You don’t have to be a fancy cook to win a $25,000
recipe prize. But you do have to have an ingenious
husband.
Mrs. Sam P. Weston, who just walked off with first
prize plus an all-electric kitchen in Pillsbury Flour
Company’s third Grand National Recipe and Baking
contest, didn’t own a cookbook when she got married.
Fortunately her husband brought*
his along. She’s acquired only
one other culinary guide since—
a cookbook put out by a church
group in Vermont.
The Westons live in La Jolla,
California. Helen Weston does all
her own housework and looks
after her two sons, aged 3 and 6.
Her husband edits the monthly
house organ for the Solar Air
craft Company and enters con
tests as a hobby. That’s how Hel
en Weston happened to be one
of the 100 finalists at the Bake-off
at the Waldorf-Astoria in New
York City.
The grand-prize-winning recipe
is a different kind of cake. First
you make a chocolate peppermint
frosting with a cream-cheese base,
then you do something revolu
tionary—you throw half the frost
ing into the cake.
Here is the prize recipe:
$25,000 Starlight Double
Delight Cake
Cream together 2 packages (3
oz. size) cream cheese, Vz cup
shortening, Vz teaspoon vanilla, Vz
teaspoon peppermint extract until
fluffy.
Measure 6 cups (1 Vz lbs.) sifted
confectioners’ sugar.
Blend half of sugar into the
creamed cheese mixture. Add V\
cup hot water alternately with
balance of sugar. Blend in 4
squares (4 oz.) melted chocolate.
Reserve half of mixture (2 cups)
as frosting for baked cake.
