Mary B. in NC, this recipe was shared just this past May.
Hope it is what you are looking for! My Mom made a similar
one years ago.
Date Nut Roll
1-3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 lb large marshmallows (16)
1-1/2 cup dates
1/4 cup nuts
3 tbsp maraschino cherry juice
1/4 cup maraschino cherries
2 tbsp cream
Reserve 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs for coating. Cut
marshmallows, dates and nuts into small pieces and combine
with graham cracker crumbs. Add cherries, cherry juice and
cream to bind the ingredients. Shape the mixture into a long
thick roll and roll in remaining crumbs until coated
thoroughly. Wrap securely in wax paper or aluminum foil and
chill overnight or store in freezer for future use. Slice
and top each slice with whipped cream and a maraschino
cherry.
Serves 12.
