Date-Filled Cookies image

This is a unique family recipe that is originally from my great, great aunt. I have not tried it, but submitted it in response to a request. I'm sorry I don't know the serving size or exactly how long it takes to bake!

I've made these cookies with different types of dates, and they always turn out great. I've used Medjool dates, Deglet Noor dates, and even pitted dates.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover dates. I always have a few dates left over from other recipes, and these cookies are a great way to use them up.
