Instructions

  1. Put butter, sugar, dates, and eggs in a heavy bottomed pan. Bring to boil over medium heat, and stir. When it starts to boil, stir constantly (about 10 minutes) until the liquid starts pulling away from the sides of the pan while you are stirring it, then remove from heat.

  2. Add vanilla, walnuts and Rice Krispies, and mix in well.

  4. Roll each log in flaked coconut and place on waxed paper until completely cool. Store in a plastic container with cover.
