Pdf1 stick butter (or margarine)
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 pack of chopped dates (8 oz.)
• 2 cups Rice Krispie cereal
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• confectioners sugar (enough to roll balls) or sub for coconut
Directions:
Put butter, sugar, and chopped dates in a sauce pan. Cook on medium low heat until dates are melted. This takes about 8 minutes.
Take off heat and stir in Rice Krispies and vanilla.
You can also add a cup of chopped nuts if you like. Pecans are good.
Pour date mixture in a pan and let it cool. You don't want it totally cold, but you don't want it so hot it hurts your hands.
Take pieces of the mixture and shape into balls. It helps if you put a little butter on your fingers to do this.
Roll balls in confectioners sugar.
That's it Very easy. Very tasty.
