This is another very old recipe my Mother gave me. My
Grandmother also made it.
Date Nut Krinkles
1/2 C. butter
3/4 C. sugar
1/2 lb. pitted dates, cut up
1 large egg, beaten
1 Tbl. milk
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
3/4 C. chopped pecans
2 C. rice krispies
shredded coconut
Combine butter, sugar and dates in saucepan and cook over
very low heat until mixture comes to a boil. Remove from
heat. Mix together well beaten egg, milk, vanilla and salt.
Add to date mixture. Stir to combine and cook for only 2
minutes. Set aside to cool. When cool. When cool stir in
nuts and cereal. Form into small balls and roll in coconut.
Makes about 4 dozen.
