Receta DATE BARS
This is by far my favorite cookie, and friends can't get enough of them. The crunchy crumb layers with the moist date filling is a nice contrast and the vanilla adds something special to the date filling.

- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 9x9-inch metal baking pan with foil, bottom and sides and butter. Bring 3/4 cup water to simmer in medium saucepan. Add dates; simmer until very soft and thick, stirring occasionally. Cool to room temperature. Stir in vanilla.
- Combine flour, sugar, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in large bowl; stir to blend. Add butter. Using fingertips, rub in until moist clumps form (or use a pastry cutter). Press half of oat mixture evenly over bottom of prepared pan. Spread date mixture over. Sprinkle with remaining oat mixture; press gently to adhere. Bake until brown at edges and golden brown and set in center, about 20 minutes (donât over bake). Cool completely in pan on rack. Using the edges of the foil, lift out the cookies. Peel down the foil from the edges and cut into bars and serve.
