I love making these no- bake date and nut treats in the summer because they only require about 5 min of cooking! Make sure the date mixture doesnt boil rapidly or it will curdle the egg!

RICE KRISPIES DATE BALLS (AKA ANGEL COOKIES)



Rice Krispies Date Balls (Aka Angel Cookies) image

Another recipe from my Aunt's recipe clippings. This one also came from the Sept 19, 1969 Chicago Tribune originally. The clipping is crinkled with old yellow tape holding it together to make sure the recipes stayed intact. :) These are not like the typical angel cookies at all - they are little balls of dates, coconut, and Rice Krispies rolled in powdered. Don't use the prechopped dates as they aren't sticky enough - buy the whole pitted dates and chop them yourself. Also be sure to use the canned coconut..the kind that comes in bags is too dry and you will have a hard time getting the cookies to roll up otherwise.

Time 40m

Yield 32 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 tablespoons unsalted butter or 4 tablespoons margarine
1 (8 ounce) package dates, pitted, hand chopped
1 cup granulated sugar
2 cups Rice Krispies
1 (3 1/3 ounce) can flaked coconut (not the kind in bags)
powdered sugar, as needed

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, melt butter.
  • Add dates and granulated sugar and cook slowly, stirring constantly, until blended.
  • Add cereal and coconut, stirring to combine.
  • Remove from heat and let cool until you can handle the mixture without burning your fingers.
  • Form into 1" sized balls with greased hands, then roll each into powdered sugar to coat.

Tips:

  • Use unsweetened coconut flakes to keep the balls from becoming too sweet.
  • If you don't have coconut oil, you can substitute another type of oil, such as vegetable oil or canola oil.
  • To make the balls extra gooey, add a few tablespoons of honey or agave syrup to the mixture.
  • For a fun twist, try dipping the balls in melted dark chocolate or white chocolate.
  • Store the balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
