DATE COOKIES



Date Cookies image

These date cookies with a base of oatmeal are perfectly sweet and delicious. The addition of walnuts gives them a nice crunch and the hint of cinnamon complements the flavor of the dates. You can make the dough ahead of time and bake the cookies later if you prefer. This recipe produces cookies that are crispy on the edges and soft and chewy on the inside--a winning combination

Yield about 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup chopped Medjool dates (about 5 dates)
