Date Nut Torte image

Whether I serve my torte with coffee at a luncheon or in the evening when friends visit, I always get compliments. My husband (we've been married 42 years), three children and five grandchildren are all good eaters, and it's a joy to prepare this dessert for them, too! Cooking is something I've always enjoyed. I also like sewing, quilting and gardening. My husband and I travel by trailer as often as we can, and we're members, too, of group called "Laborers for Christ" that helps congregations build churches and schools.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the walnuts from the recipe. The torte still turned out great! I would definitely make it again without nuts.

This torte is a bit too rich for my taste. I would probably cut the amount of butter in the recipe next time.

I'm not a huge fan of walnuts, so I substituted pecans instead. The torte still turned out great! I would definitely make it again with pecans.

I'm not a big fan of dates, but I really enjoyed this torte. The dates are not overpowering and they add a nice sweetness to the dish. I would definitely make this again.

This torte is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe next time.
