I wasn’t sure what to expect with this recipe, but they turned into little morsels of pure yum! They have the perfect crunch, flavor and sweetness and not overbearing on either level, which is dangerous seeing you can have one after another and then on and on. I used pecans and next time I think I will toast them to bring out their toasty nuttiness and also chopped the dates. My hubs kept on oohing and awing, that man has such a sweet tooth. Thank you, Dee, for sharing.
