I experimented with my favorite no-bake cookie recipe and was delighted to find that there's almost no difference in taste. I can't keep my hands off these. By the way, the dates I use are whole pitted dates, that I dice with a scissors. I'm not sure if the pre-chopped, flour coated version would work.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup brown rice syrup
1/2 cup butter
1 pinch salt
8 ounces dates, chopped
3 cups brown rice krispies
1 cup unsweetened dried shredded coconut
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine syrup, butter, salt, and dates.
2. Heat to boiling; boil and stir constantly for five minutes.
3. Remove from heat; gently stir in cereal.
4. Immediately (you need to work it while warm) begin to roll into 1 1/2 inch balls; butter your hands to prevent sticking.
5. Roll each ball in coconut and cool on wax paper.
