Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1/4 cup milk

  2. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes or until dates become a paste.
  3. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour.
  4. Meanwhile, in mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Make a well; add shortening and milk. Knead into dough, adding more flour or milk if necessary.
