Skillet Cookies

In a heavy skillet mix together sugar, egg, coconut oil and chopped dates. Gently heat pan and bring mixture to a boil while stirring occasionally. When mixture begins to pull apart from the side of the skillet and your spoon leaves a momentary streak when stirring, it’s done. Remove from heat.

Quickly stir in cereal and nuts. When cool enough to handle, form into golf ball sized (or a little smaller) balls and roll in powdered sugar.

Makes about 24.

Note: If you need to leave out the nuts, consider adding chopped gumdrops (about 1/4 cup) or additional crisp rice cereal.
