Our family has made a delightful dessert for decades. It is a very heavy dense cake that only has one cup of sugar in it ! It requires one POUND of dates, and one POUND of pecans. We normally used Dromedary dried dates, but this year are using dates that we ordered straight from the Middle East. WOW, talk about great flavor !!! Can’t wait to try the cake at Thanksgiving.
I had to find that cook book Chris said was a staple of your mother's. I found it on Ebay for 10 dollars. Apparently, it was put out in the 70s😊 love your channel! Thank you, Miss Tammy, for your yummy recipes.. my favorite is your cream cheese and sausage muffins, so delicious 😋 God bless you and your precious family 💓
My grandma made date nut bars. They were thin ,maybe 1 inch thick, very moist, and chewy. She served them warm with real whipped creamor butter(or both). I've not been able to duplicate them, but this inspires me to try again. The dates she used were whole, and she cut them up. I think that helped make the bars more like a soft chewy brownie. You know the kind that rises when baking, then deflates some in the middle as it cools and you have crispy edges and gooy centers. I loved an edge piece that included a generous portion of the center, too. Home-made whipped cream was the best.
Wow..love date bars and now probably this chewy cake! Yum! 😍 I wonder if that older cookbook has the SC Hilton Head Hotel pineapple fritters with pineapple sauce recipe?I lost it back in the 80s. Uses a thicker sauce rather than a glaze.❤ Supposed to be famous at their restaurant..?
I got married in 1978. I chose date nut for my wedding cake. It was absolutely delicious. This flavor was a big hit back then. I miss it. Thank you for sharing. I may have to try these. 😊
I like seeing Chris cook for a change. Wry sense of humor is great. I can't find the Hum Dings recipe on the CVC site but I did find your video making them. I make something similar with dates every Christmas called Valerie's Krispy Date Bars. Dates, butter and sugar cooked on the stove and poured over Rice Krispies and pressed in a pan. When cool, cut into little squares and coat with powdered sugar in a Ziploc bag. My whole family likes them. Anyone who likes dates would love them. Now to watch the Hum Dings video: th-cam.com/video/qBI-Sm2pR6g/w-d-xo.html
What a treasure that book is, 1967 was the first publication date. Ladies worked hard you got that right Chris, I have cookbooks 150 years old, unbelievable what they had to do back then. Your mother in law sounds like she was very special, loved and missed, I was lucky enough to have great in laws.
Chris great to have you in the kitchen . And giving Tammy a rest . Your date bar recipe. looks so delicious . I would call it a date bar cake . I'm keeping the recipe . Have A Blessed Weekend .💞🕊️💞
😂🤣😅Hi Chris! You sure do have a hard time halving a recipe! If a whole recipe uses two 9x13” pans then I guess a half recipe would use………………..one 9x13”pan? LOL!! This was a very funny video. Really great. It was fun seeing you in the kitchen, Chris. You’re not in enough videos! Thank you (and Martha) for this awesome recipe. I love these “old timey” cookbooks. (I’d use my mother’s but they’re all written in German!) I find them at yard sales…love you guys! ❤️😘😊
Hey Chris, I said it before, but I sure do like your style. Those bars look delicious. Unfortunately, I can't make myself eat shredded coconut for nothing. But I like all the other ingredients.
@CollardValleyCooks thank you. I love y'all's content. Definitely will try this recipe. I could almost taste it. 😋 I also love the sentiment of your mother's cookbook. ❤
Chris, you're a good cook in your own right. I was trying to imagine if I had ever asked my husband to go in the kitchen and bake up a sweet treat for us😮 He'd have given me his look of, 'Are you insane???' 😂😂 Never woulda happened in our house. 😂 Those look good. I love dates in holiday recipes and not sure why I don't make things with them at other times of year 😊❤
Hello from Mocksville, North Carolina!❤ You make me laugh, Chris😆😅😂🤣 I need a lesson on the Bosch attachments. When to use what and how to use them!🤔 These look good. I was thinking maybe use 1 9x13 pan😋😋 Love you guys ❤❤
Hiya Chris. As a child, I went to my aunt's in the country. Walked by her outside while she was wringing a chicken's neck, then chopped it's head off with an axe.😱😭 Was traumatized for weeks. Don't mind eatin' 'em but don't wanna know how they got to my plate.
I am trying to watch, but all I can think about is finding out my former childhood minister was killed today in the Sapelo dock accident. He currently lived in St Marys, and he was big into the law enforcement chaplaincy, His name was Charles Houston. He and his wife have 2 kids and I’m not sure how many grands. They also have Mrs Elizabeth’s mother living with them, She is in her 90s. I just can’t imaging what she’s going thru. I know he is in the arms of the Lord tonight tho. Please pray for his family, and the others that were killed and injured. Thank you.
Thank you. He was a truly special soldier of God. When I last talked to him, it was about finding a place for him to stay when former President J. Carter dies as he was going to be attending the funeral. We never would have thought Bro Charles would die first. He was our preacher when Jimmy was elected.
Chris did a fantastic job
I love dates! Stuff dates with a pecan half, then roll in powdered sugar. I can eat a huge plate full.

In an old cookbook, the messiest pages are the recipes used the most!!
Great & funny video! I’m making them because dates are great for your heart❤️💜💕
Love seeing Chris pop up in videos. You guys are the best! ❤❤
Love those haven’t used it in 55 years !
Speaking of rice krispy treats, my daughter made brown butter rice krispy treats and they were to die for! I wouldn't want any other kind now!!!
My mother used to make these and I am SOOO glad to find the recipe! Thank you.
Hey Chris. You're a hoot! Enjoy watching you in the kitchen and this recipe sounds really good. Can't wait to give it a try.
Wow, those look moist and chewy, nd all the ingredients are here 🥰 Thanks for my next project!
I love your recipe for the date bars
Looks absolutely DELICIOUS 😋
Can you post the full recipe please
Hi Tammy and Chris. They look delicious. Can't wait to try them.
Sounds good
That’s a well loved book for sure.
My Dads mom was an excellent cook as well.
Cookies look delicious.

That is awesome!
Crazy stuff happening. Walked by Datenuts i bought just thinking to my self I need to search for date bar recipes & this popped up…. Lol
I plan try the recipe, I would be curious on its favorite,,. I never eaten a cake with dates in it.
My grandma made date nut bars. They were thin ,maybe 1 inch thick, very moist, and chewy. She served them warm with real whipped creamor butter(or both).

I loved an edge piece that included a generous portion of the center, too. Home-made whipped cream was the best.
The recipe did say to spread them in a larger pan and make them thin. So I bet it is how she used to make them.
These bars would be good with some oatmeal in it too, I bet.
From Sharon, maybe instead of coconut? We don’t care for coconut.
I’ll eat the corners ! Yummy Chris
That looks great! Have you ever done sea salt caramel candy?
Not yet!
I think for 2 1/2 cups of brown sugar to half that would actually be 1 1/4 not 1 and 1/8th.
@@candismith4080 same for the flour
That’s a well loved cookbook with all the baking stains 😊
Love it❤
Ohhh yum!!!!! 🥰❤️😋
Mmmmm 😋
Wow..love date bars and now probably this chewy cake! Yum! 😍

Not typical three layer date bars, but same flavor profile in a cake. I'll have to try this for a ladies ☕ time🙋
Looks delicious ! I don’t think I’ve ever eaten anything with dates , can’t wait to try this 😊
My mom used to make something similar but it also has orange slices in it chopped up. The candy gumdrop ones. It is so delicious.
I got married in 1978. I chose date nut for my wedding cake. It was absolutely delicious. This flavor was a big hit back then. I miss it. Thank you for sharing. I may have to try these. 😊
I love dates. But I can’t have them😭well maybe one or two. The ones that are soft are to die for. Great recipe Chris 😊

Hi Tammy and Chris and thanks you for sharing this with me and that looks so delicious 😋 ❤❤❤❤❤😊
Moist
Doing a great job, they look yummy. I just made Tammy’s quick peach cobbler. Looks so good.
Was the measure of brown sugar correct? I think half of 2-1/2 would be 1-1/4.
it was half of 2 1/4
@CollardValleyCooks thank you. I love y'all's content. Definitely will try this recipe. I could almost taste it. 😋 I also love the sentiment of your mother's cookbook. ❤

Hello from Mocksville, North Carolina!❤ You make me laugh, Chris😆😅😂🤣 I need a lesson on the Bosch attachments. When to use what and how to use them!🤔 These look good. I was thinking maybe use 1 9x13 pan😋😋 Love you guys ❤❤
Do you have the Humdings in your cookbook 🤔👩🏼🍳🤔🌼
Yes and on collardvalleycooks.com
Is it in your Cookbook 👩🏼🍳🤔
@@CollardValleyCooks ThankYou 🌻☦️🌻❤️
4:30 😂
FYI.I hope they weren't tough.You can't beat that much with flour It activates the gluten.But Now you know
They aren't
2&1/2...would be...1&1/4. Not 1/8th👍
It was 2 and 1/4 in the recipe not 2 and 1/2
This may be a silly question, but what kind of mixer is that?
Bosch it is on collardvalleycooks.com for you.
Arent you supposed to mix all the dry ingredients together and then add to wet?

I saw that in the news and I am praying for all of those who are touched by this tragedy. I pray the Lord gives them peace like only He can.
