These are tasty enough to definitely be worth making, but I’m not sure they’re standout enough to make a second time. They mostly taste like boxed cake mix (funnily enough…) and are VERY sweet.

Texturally, they were very crumbly while still warm and quite stiff when cooled – they never got “chewy.” They’re more like thick cookies. And with the exception of having fewer walnuts, I followed the recipe exactly so I’m not sure what happened there.

Overall, yummy but not amazing. Could use a little less sugar.

I FINALLY made these this morning, and they are wonderful! The flavor and texture are both sublime. The top kind of puffed up and separated from the bottom a little bit, but they’re so good that I don’t care! Thank you for the great recipe!

These look so yummy and chewy, -I’m all about the texture. I noticed that it doesn’t call for any eggs. I find that interesting, and it gives me another reason to try this recipe. I love to experiment. : )

This looks good! I have to bring a dessert to a picnic and this could be just the ticket! I love dates! Thanks!
