Looking for Date Cookie recipe
I usually buy chopped dates in a box that has a cookie recipe on the back. Today I went to the store and they had dates in a bag and no recipe. I haven't made these cookies for a long time so I've forgotten the recipe. Do any of you have a good date cookie recipe?

My mom used to make a date cookie that was like a sandwich. Cookie dough, date mixture and more dough then bake. I found this to taste the same and be much easier.
Date Bars
Date Filling: 8 oz box of chopped dates, 1/2 C water, 1 Tbl. lemon juice, 1 Tbl.butter
Cook dates, sugar & water together until thick, stirring frequently. Blend in lemon juice and butter. Cool
Cookie Dough: 1 box Butter Pecan Cake Mix, 1/2 C butter-softened, 1 egg
Preheat oven to 350. Stir dry cake mix, butter & egg in lrg. bowl. Press 1/2 mixture(I use a little more than 1/2) into ungreased 9x13 pan. Bake 10 min. Pour date mixture over crust. Sprinkle with remaining cake mix mixture. Bake 20-25 min. or until light golden brown. Cool completely, about 1 hour before cutting.
I had to take these away from our pastor.lol Dates seem to comes in a lot of different sizes. I have used any size in this recipe. A couple oz doesn't seem to make a difference. Hope you enjoy these as much as I do.

I have one called Hedgehogs. They have chopped dates, nuts, coconut, brown sugar, and eggs. They are rolled like little logs and rolled in coconut before the are baked. Very good. Look like hedgehogs, thus the name. If you're interested. let me know; and I'll post it. I make them every year for Christmas.
