Honey date balls

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 Whole Eggs
1 cup Dates; finely chopped
¾ cup Honey; warmed
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) Butter or Margarine
2 cups Crisp Rice Cereal
½ cup Walnuts; finely chopped
Baked Coconut for coating

Directions

Size to 7 dozen 1-inch Balls

In a medium mixing bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Stir in the dates and honey.

Melt the butter in a large, heavy pan or skillet. Remove from the heat and stir in the mixture of eggs, dates, and honey.

Reduce the heat to low and cook the mixture for about 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat again and stir in the cereal and nuts.

When the confection is cool enough to comfortably handle, but still warm, roll it into 1-inch sized balls and roll each in the coconut as you go.

Store in an airtight container; refrigerating extends shelf life up to 2 weeks.
