Now this recipe is famous since 1912, which is what the package said. I was bored and I felt like baking so I decided to make them. I should of napped like I wanted to because I was going out but I baked. Since they are bars I figured they would be granola bar texture but they are more like a cake or cookie texture, a soft cookie. Either way they are really good.
Ingredients
3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup Dromedary Dates chopped
1 cup shredded coconut or 1/2 cup chopped nuts
2 whole eggs
1 cup brown sugar
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix in the chopped dates and the coconut or nuts. In separate bowl beat the eggs until foamy, gradually beating in the brown sugar. Add the flour mixture and stir. Spread in a well greased 13 x 9 cake pan to a depth of approximately one half inch. Place in the oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes. When finished cut in four inch by one inch bars, makes approximately 20 bars. Remove from pan while still warm. You'll like them and so will the whole family!
