I also make moroccan chicken with them. And I've put them in cookies and muffins in place of chocolate chips or raisins </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baking-with-dates-the-fruit#post-1811229 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 09:41:24 +0000 swurlygurl 1811229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BakerBee: Haha!

Any favorite recipes? I looked around online, but there are so many - no idea where to start. </p>
