Skillet Date Cookies image

I got this recipe from my younger sister. She calls them Angel Cookies. The filling will be very hot so use caution when rolling. I love them because they are sweet, chewy and crispy.

Categories     Cookies

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

8-10 oz dates, chopped
1 c sugar
1/2 c butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 c rice krispies
1/2 c pecans, chopped
1 c coconut, flaked
NOTE: MAY DECREASE RICE KRISPIES BY 1/4 -1/2 CUP TO BE ABLE TO FORM BALLS BETTER WITHOUT THEM GETTING TOO DRY. ALSO SOME PEOPLE USE AN EGG IN THEIR RECIPE, THIS ONE DOES NOT CALL FOR AN EGG BUT YOU MAY ADD ONE IF YOU LIKE.

Steps:

  • 1. Melt butter in large heavy skillet. Add chopped dates and sugar. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently for about 4-5 minutes, until thick and bubbly.
  • 2. Remove from heat; add vanilla, rice cereal and pecans.
  • 3. When just cool enough to handle, form into small balls and roll in coconut.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out really dry. I think I might have overbaked them.

These cookies were a bit too soft for my taste. I think I'll try baking them for a few minutes longer next time.

These cookies were a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I'll try using a different type of flour next time.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
