Ingredients:
1 cup dates finely chopped
2 tsp baking soda
2 cups boiling water
2 Tbsp butter creamed
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
4 cups flour
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup chopped walnuts
Pam
Directions:
Put chopped dates in a bowl, sprinkle baking soda over dates, pour boiling water over dates and baking soda. Set aside and let cool.
Mix together butter, eggs, vanilla and sugar.In a large bowl put flour, add date mixture, add sugar mixture. Mix thoroughly. Add nuts and mix thoroughly again.
Spray tins with Pam
Divide evenly into 3 tins.
Bake at 325 degrees for 1hour and 15 minutes to an 1 hour and a half.
Check at 1 hour and 15 min to see if done. If not continue for a few more minutes.
I usually turn oven on just before I put the mixture in the tins. By the time I finished the oven is heated up.
Tins:
7 1/2 tall
3 5/8 across
As close as you can get. A little narrower will not matter. It does rise so you have to allow room for that.
