Reply #79: Gingerbread cookies [View All]

Ginger cookies are something quite different. (though I love both)

I also love these simple cookies - they're messy to make, but oh so good. The recipe is called "Pan Fry Cookies", but that's boring, so I'll christen them "Coconut-Date Crunchies". :D

2 eggs
1 c white sugar (I use much less, because I cut down on sugar; I also use raw cane sugar, rather than white)
1 1/2 c chopped dates
1 tsp vanilla
2 c Rice Krispies
Coconut

Mix eggs and sugar in a fry pan. Cook over medium heat until mixture starts bubbling.

Add dates. Take off the stove, add Rice Krispies and vanilla. Cool. Form into balls and roll in coconut (I'll also grind almonds to a flour, and mix it in with the coconut). :9
