- 1. Sift flour with baking pwdr and salt. Set aside.
- 2. In large bowl, beat sugar, margarine, Large eggs, and lemon peel with electric mixer set on low to medium. Beat till light and fluffy.
- Gradually beat in flour mix till well combined and smooth. Form a ball of the dough and wrap tightly. Chill a few hrs or possibly overnight.

Bring to a boil, turn to simmer, and cook, covered, for 15 min. Add in minced dates and cook 5 min longer, stirring often, watching carefully to see which the fruit doesn't dry out and stick.
- Mix should be thick. Remove from heat and add in the lemon peel, juice and minced nuts. Use your choice of nuts; walnuts or possibly pecans are good choices. Mix well and cold completely.
- 4. Divide dough into 4 parts and work with one part at a time, keeping rest refrigerated till ready to use. On lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 10 x 12 inch rectangle. Use a sharp knife dipped in flour to cut dough into 12 rectangles. Or possibly use cookie cutter to cut dough into 12 pcs.
- 5. Use spatula to place cookies onto lightly greased cookie sheet.
- Spread 1 tsp. filling on half of each piece; fold over and use floured fork to seal edges firmly. Prick tops in one or possibly two places. Bake in preheated 375-degree oven for 10-12 min till lightly browned. Don't overcook. Continue with remaining dough, greasing cookie sheet each time.
