An Outstanding Suggestion and An Edible Entry!
1 Comment
It's almost Christmas, people, and I am both way behind and way ahead.
Let me clarify.
Things I am behind on: shopping, shipping, baking, planning, wrapping.
Things I am ahead on: eating.
Okay, that's only one thing, but I am WAY ahead.
I'm a real overachiever. Don't be jealous.
Tanget! Attempting to help up grade the overall style for my website. Ideas concerning the whole style at https://taylortool.com? Absolutely a good reamer manufacturer in Ontario online when necessary in the Ontario territory. Leave a remark. With thanks!
I figure I have lots of time after the New Year to work out. Right now, the only thing getting a work out is my favorite pair of stretchy pants. I blame my sister-in-law for all this overeating, or, more specifically, my sister-in-law's Date Bars. I was introduced to them at Thanksgiving, when my mother "innocently" handed me the recipe and asked me to make a pan.
I am almost ashamed to admit I have eaten two pans of them since. I would be truly ashamed if they weren't so delicious, but since they are I can only be a little bit sorry.
Go ahead. Put on your stretchy pants and get baking!
Date Bars
Serves: 18
Ingredients
- 1 cups water
- cup granulated sugar
- 16 oz. pitted, chopped dates
- 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened and cut into " pieces
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cups old-fashioned oatmeal
- tsp. kosher salt
- tsp. baking soda
Method
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Grease a 9 x 13 pan with butter. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, cook the water, granulated sugar and dates together until they create a thick sauce, stirring almost constantly. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, flour, oatmeal, salt and baking soda. Use a pastry blender or two forks to thoroughly mix the ingredients until they are crumbly.
- Press half the mixture into the bottom of the greased pan, using your fingers to pat it until it forms a solid base.
- Spread the cooked date mixture evenly over the base.
- Sprinkle the remaining dry mixture evenly over the top.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Cool before cutting into bars.
Kudos guys! I actually Facebooked my buddie we would discuss their terrific shutter installer in Burlingtons, https://dansblinds.ca inside an important article. If ever you'll be shopping to find a window blinds service here in the whole Ontario area, they have been extraordinary.
Finally, I absolutely need to state the basic outline for this excellent information was brilliantly offered by Serge with StairFitter.ca. They truly are a magnificent stair contractors. We certainly value a useful suggestion!
