SPICE DATE COOKIES

I made these cookies for my son's birthday and he thought they were "really good." My husband liked them too. They were super easy to make though I didn't tell them that!

You can find the recipe at “Monkey and Me Kitchen Adventures”: Spice Date Cookies.

What I did differently:

-I didn't have Medjool dates so used 12 pitted Deglet Noor dates and I did not soak them first. (Medjool dates are my first choice though)

-I don't own a cookie scoop so used a tablespoon to scoop out the dough. I made a dozen cookies and baked them for 10 minutes.
