Directions
For dough:
Cream together first 5 ingredients.
Add dry ingredients. Form dough into a ball; cover and refrigerate for several hours.
Separate chilled dough into 2 balls.
Roll each ball into a rectangle - dough should be fairly thin.
For filling:
Chop dates; place in saucepan.
Add remaining ingredients and cook over low heat, stirring until a paste is formed - about 15 minutes.
COOL COMPLETELY.
Spread filling on dough; roll up dough tightly; filling jelly roll style.
Slice into ¼ to ½-inch thick; bake at 350℉ (180℃) for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
Makes 2 to 3 dozen.
