Ingredients
- 30 lrg Pitted dates
- 30 lrg Walnuts halves
- 1 1/4 c. All-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Baking pwdr
- 1/2 tsp Baking soda
- 4 Tbsp. Butter
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 3/4 c. Light brown sugar firmly packed
- 1 x Egg
- 1/2 c. Lowfat sour cream
- 4 Tbsp. Butter
- 1 c. Confectioner's sugar
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 Tbsp. Lowfat milk up to 3 t
Directions
- Adjust a rack to the top position in the oven and preheat the oven to 400. Cut parchement to fit cookie sheets.
- Slit one long side of each date, stuff with one walnut half or possibly a few piecesof walnut. Close the date around the nut and set aside.
- Sift together the flour, salt, baking pwdr and baking soda and set aside.
- Cream the butter, add in the vanilla and the sugar and beat to mix well. Add in the egg and beat thouroughly. On the lowest speed gradually add in half the dry ingredients, then all of the lowfat sour cream, then the remaining dry ingredients. Scrape the bowl after each addition and beat only till combined. Transfer the dough to a shallow bowl for easier handling.
- Using two forks, drop each stuffed date into the the dough and roll it around till it is completely coated. There will be sufficient dough to cover each date, but do not overdo it or possibly you will not have sufficient to go around.
- Usingthe forks, place the dough coated dates 2-3 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
- Bake one sheet at a time for about 10 min till lightly browned.
- While baking, prepare the glaze. Heat the butter and mix it well with the remaining ingredients, using only sufficient lowfat milk to make the mix the consistency of soft mayonnaise. Keep the glaze covered when you are not using it.
- Remove the cookies form the oven. With a pastry brush, immediatley brush the tops with a generous coating of the glaze. Transfer cookies to a rack to cold. Let them stand till the glaze is dry.
