From the kitchen of Stephanie Knewasser. I found this
recipe on allrecipes.com & changed it a bit. The original
recipe called for 1 c finely chopped almonds & only 2 1/2 c
Rice Krispies. It also called for the cookies to be rolled into
"strawberry" shapes, rolled in red sprinkles, then topped with
green frosting leaves. I did it, but found it all very time
consuming. Next time, I'll just roll them in balls & coat them in
sprinkles. I think they'd look better served in mini cupcake
papers.
1 c butter
1 c sugar
2 eggs
8 ounces chopped pitted dates
Cook & stir 5 minutes or until butter is melted & sugar is
completely dissolved.
Gradually stir in:
1 c flour
1/2 tsp salt
Cook 5-7 minutes.
Remove from heat & stir in:
1 tsp vanilla
5 c Rice Krispies cereal
Roll into balls, then coat in sprinkles.
Frosting embellishment optional.
Freeze well.
