Sorry you were deprived of a family rum ball recipe… living in Europe we had those little chocolate bottles of brandy when I was a kid, so I didn’t need alcoholic cookies!

I think the reason I had not problem using natural peanut butter is that I used a jar that was already half empty, so it was not as oily. My dates didn’t get oily on the outside like yours, so I only had to roll once in the sugar. You’re right, the Medjool dates were very expensive, and very BIG! Pitting them was very easy, but they were definitely not bite sized. Forget trying to make them look good, they’ll always be ugly!

Wow, thanks for stopping by Fern and Sarah! It is great to hear the story behind the cookies. I’m sorry to hear that Dorothy passed away but she left quite a mark, even on people who never met her!

This cookie recipe came from a collaboration of my mother, Dorothy Demke, and myself, Sarah Gerard. I’m her daughter. They brought us a lot of fame. I also had a bakery in Los Angeles and Gourmet printed the recipe in 1990 and credited it to my bakery. They also included it in the December 2008 edition of favorite cookies from 1941 to 2008. The cookies were also written about and appeared on television more than once. They have been copied and sold by many. I consider it a compliment, except when others try to take credit for the recipe. Dorothy sold Some Crust along with the recipes several years ago. She died last year but her memory lives on with her wonderful recipes and the bakery she created and loved. It’s all about the butter!

You just might have to take your baked goods on field trips for better photo ops! I can see you taking them to the park or the beach or perhaps the zoo!
