Recipe - Honey Date Balls

2 Whole Eggs
1 cup Dates; finely chopped
Three fourths cup Honey; warmed
4 tablespoon (One half stick) Butter or
Margarine
2 cup Crisp Rice Cereal
One half cup Walnuts; finely chopped
Baked Coconut for coating

Size to 7 dozen 1inch Balls

In a medium mixing bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Stir in the dates and
honey.

Melt the butter in a large, heavy pan or skillet. Remove from the heat and
stir in the mixture of eggs, dates, and honey.

Reduce the heat to low and cook the mixture for about 10 minutes, stirring
constantly. Remove from heat again and stir in the cereal and nuts.

When the confection is cool enough to comfortably handle, but still warm,
roll it into 1inch sized balls and roll each in the coconut as you go.

Store in an airtight container; refrigerating extends shelf life up to 2
weeks.
