Category: Diabetic, Cookies

 Ingredients List

  • 1/2 c Butter; softened
  • 1 Egg;
  • 2 ts Vanilla extract;
  • 1 c Whole wheat flour;
  • 1 ts Baking powder;
  • 1/8 ts Salt;
  • 1 c Unsweetened coconut; flaked
  • 1 c Unsugared dates; chopped
  • 4 ts Orange peel; fresh grated
  • 1 c Pecans; finely ground

 Directions

Cream the butter, egg and vanilla together in a large mixing bowl. In a
small bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt. Add the
flour mixture a little at a time, to the creamed mixture, beating after
each addition. In a medium bowl, combine the coconut, dates, orange peel,
and 1/2 cup of the pecans. Stir into the cookie mixture. Divide the dough
in half and form into two logs, approximately 1.1/2 inches in diameter.
Place the remaining 1/2 cup of pecans on a piece of waxed paper. Roll the
logs in the nuts. Wrap each log in waxed paper and chill for 1 hour. To
bake, slice the logs into 1/8 inch rounds and place them on an ungreased
cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly
browned.

Makes 5 dozen.
