Dates and nut balls Dates and nut balls
Dates provide a wide range of essential nutrients and it's high content of sugar gives a lot of energy when you are fasting. It contains a lot of protein and fiber and soft dates can be cooked in clarified butter/ghee, pitted with nuts of your choice and be served yummy and healthy sweets. Very good with kids this sweet goes well with the adults too who love sweets but try to avoid store bought ones. Enjoy and happy eating!!!

Robin's Fruit & Nut Thumbprints Robin's Fruit & Nut Thumbprints
I searched high and low for a decent thumbprint recipe... some had milk, some had orange juice... I just wanted something basic. My first batch turned out too flat but after tweaking, this recipe turned out much better. Going to try making them next time with sugar instead of brown sugar to give it a more shortbread like taste.
