Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat dates, 2/3 cup brown sugar, orange juice, and orange zest in a saucepan over low heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until dates have softened, absorbed the liquid, and mixture is like a paste, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla extract.
- Stir oats, flour, 1 cup brown sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl; cut in butter with a knife or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Lightly press 2/3 of the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9x9-inch pan. Spread date mixture evenly over the crumb crust; sprinkle remaining crumbs evenly over the top of date mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden, about 30 minutes; cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before slicing into bars.

ANITA'S MOM'S DATE SQUARES
I have not yet tried this, but it is from an overdue library book (From Our Mothers' Kitchens) and I want to return the book tomorrow, so need to get the recipes I want to try copied down, pronto. I love the idea of adding the orange juice and zest in with the dates in this old-fashioned recipe.

- First, make filling.
- In a heavy saucepan, combine dates, sugar, water, orange juice and grated orange rind.

- Let mixture cool.
- Preheat oven to 375F; lightly grease a 9-inch square cake pan and set aside.
- To make crust, stir together flours, soda and oats.
- In a mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar together, then add in the flour mixture and stir until crumbly and moist.
- Pat two-thirds of the mixture into the prepared pan, then spread cooled filling evenly over this base.
- Sprinkle with remaining flour mixture, evenly over entire surface, and then pat in lightly.
- Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges just begin to turn golden.
- Let cool slightly before cutting into bars or squares.
