    Merry Cookies - Date Pinwheel Cookies

    List of Ingredients




    1/4 Basic dough
    1/3 cup cut-up dates
    3 tablespoons finely chopped nuts
    3 tablespoons brown sugar -- packed
    2 tablespoons water
    1/4 teaspoon grated orange peel

    Recipe



    Refrigerate dough about 1 hour. Mix remaining ingredients
    in saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally,
    until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes; cool. Roll dough between
    two pieces of waxed paper into rectangle, 10x8 inches
    (moisten surface to keep waxed paper from slipping).
    Spread date mixture evenly over dough. Roll up tightly,
    beginning at wide side. Wrap in waxed paper; refrigerate
    until firm enough to slice, about 2 hours. Heat oven to 350
    degrees. Cut into slices about 1/4" thick. (If dough
    crumbles, let stand at room temperature until softened,
    about 15 minutes). Place on ungreased cookie sheet.
    Bake until light brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Makes about 2
    1/2 dozen cookies.
