1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan over medium high heat, combine water, dates, raisins and prunes.
2. Boil for 5 minutes, water will be absorbed and remove from heat, add chopped up butter and stir till butter is melted.
3. Transfer to large bowl and let cool.
