Ingredients
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– ½ cup powdered sugar
– ½ teaspoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup dates, pitted and chopped
– ¼ cup walnuts, chopped
– ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
– Icing sugar (for dusting)
Method
1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking tray and set it aside.
2. In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and powdered sugar together. Add softened butter and vanilla, then stir until a soft dough forms.
3. Take a small piece of dough and flatten it in your hand. Spoon some of the date mixture into the center, fold the dough over, and shape it into a ball.
4. Place each ball onto the baking tray. Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a nice golden color while baking.
5. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the cookies are lightly golden. After cooling, dust with icing sugar before serving.
