GREAT-GRANDMA CATHY'S DATE LOAF CANDY



Great-Grandma Cathy's Date Loaf Candy image

Handed down from my great-grandmother, and one of my father's all-time favorite holiday treats. Store in the refrigerator (rolled in the cloth), and it will keep for weeks. Otherwise, it becomes hard and sugary.

2 cups white sugar
1 cup milk
¼ cup butter
1 cup chopped dates

Immediately remove saucepan from heat and stir dates, pecans, and vanilla into the milk mixture.

TEXAS DATE LOAF CANDY



texas date loaf candy image

This is a delicious old-fashioned Texas recipe similar to fudge but is shaped into a log and sliced. I was surprised to learn from a Mexican cookbook it is also made in old Mexico.

Provided by Marlin Rinehart

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups sugar
1 cup milk
1 8-ounce package pitted dates, cut up into pieces
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup chopped pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • In a heavy large saucepan combine sugar and milk. Stir over low heat, not letting it boil, until sugar is dissolved. Raise heat to medium and bring to a boil. Add chopped dates and continue to boil until it reaches the soft ball stage (238° F.). Remove from heat and stir in butter, vanilla and pecans. Cool to lukewarm. Tear off a sheet of waxed paper and have ready for rolling the candy (or do the old-Texas way of soaking a clean non-terry cloth dish towel in cold water and wring it out). Beat candy with a large spoon until mixture becomes creamy and starts to thicken like fudge. Pour mixture out on the waxed paper or damp dish towel and roll up into a long roll about 1½-inches in diameter. Allow to harden. It may be refrigerated to speed the process. Then unroll and cut into slices.

WHOLE-WHEAT DATE NUT BREAD



Whole-Wheat Date Nut Bread image

This date-sweetened whole-wheat quickbread makes a much-appreciated holiday or hostess gift because it holds up well for several days and is a wholesome breakfast treat. The spread of tangy Neufchatel cheese balances the sweet-nutty flavor of the dates and pecans. Martha made this recipe on "Martha Bakes" episode 813.

Yield Makes one 9-inch loaf

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons safflower oil, plus more for pan
1 1/2 cups hot water
1 cup pitted dates, chopped
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup pecans, toasted and chopped
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
Neufchatel cheese, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with oil. In a medium bowl, pour hot water over dates and let stand until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Whisk in oil, egg, and vanilla. In another bowl, stir together flours, baking soda, salt, pecans, and brown sugar. Fold egg mixture into flour mixture until just combined. Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Bake, rotating pan halfway through, until a tester inserted in center of loaf comes out clean, about 65 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack, 20 minutes, then turn out bread and let cool completely. Wrap in parchment if giving as a gift, or slice and spread with Neufchatel and serve. (Loaf can be tightly wrapped and stored at room temperature up to 3 days.)
