List of Ingredients




1 pkg. yellow cake mix
3/4 c. brown sugar
3/4 c. melted butter
2 eggs
2 c. chopped dates (8 oz. pkg)
2 c. chopped walnuts (I toasted them first)

Recipe



Bake in a 9x13 greased pan in a 350° oven.

Combine cake mix and brown sugar in large bowl, and mix well. Add butter and eggs and mix until a batter forms. By hand stir in dates and walnuts. Pour into prepared pan, and bake for 35-40 minutes, edges will be golden brown. Cool 10 minutes then run knife around edge to loosen. Cool completely then cut into bars.

Praline Glaze
(really makes the date bars rich)

1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup Pet milk

Mix all ingredients in heavy saucepan. Cook over low heat to 235 degrees. Beat lightly and drizzle over warm cake. May also add nuts if desired.
