FAMILY FAVORITE! Dates are our favorite fruit to put in bars and combined with nuts give a just right flavor. I have been making these bars for over 30 years and we have them all year. The powdered sugar topping is a must for enhanced flavor. Great with coffee! Ingredients:
2 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
1 cup flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 cup dates, chopped |
1 cup pecans, chopped (or walnuts) |
powdered sugar |
Directions:
1. Beat eggs and mix with sugar. Add butter and vanilla.
2. In a separate bowl mix flour, salt, baking powder and cinnamon. Add to egg mixture and stir.
3. Fold in dates and chopped nuts.
4. Spoon mixture into a 9 x 9 inch baking pan which has been sprayed with oil.
5. Bake 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cut into bars.
