These truly are "the best"! I've made them with regular dates and with Medjool. Medjool are definitely sweeter and more complex in flavor.

Great if you adjust the recipe, if you follow the recipe these would be burnt, I did 43 minutes at 175 not 180 and they were still a bit overcooked. Lots of similar comments.

Just like my Mother used to make in New Brunswick! Delicioius!

i'm wondering if i can substitute the white flour for almond flour in the crisp?
Rachel R.
Fantastic recipe, velvety filling and really nice crumble, perfect level of sweetness. If I make it again I'll definitely try adding either more lemon/nuts/cardamon/cinnamon - I felt it was missing some kind of a "kick". I also reduced the time to 45 minutes which was perfect. The top came out just-crispy enough.

Great easy recipe. Still sweet enough without the brown sugar! Substituted the white flour with rye and almond flour, any whole grain version will work.

Awesome easy to make and taste great. Not too sweet. Watch the baking time carefully your first time. I don’t have a hot oven and mine were perfectly done in 35 minutes. I also made it gluten-free using 1-1 Red-Mill flour . No one even noticed so great for celiacs like me!

These date squares are delightfully delicious!

I used the full 500 grams of dates, 1/4 cup unsalted butter plus 1/2 cup salted butter and regular dates. As suggested, could reduce baking time. Excellent!

Me and my friends are enjoying it. Love every bite of it because it's not too sweet. It's my first time baking it and will definitely be making more. Thank you for your recipe.

This recipe was excellent. I don't know if the dates are the ones called for but they are dates brought to me from the Middle east and almost three cups. I also used old fashioned oatmeal and it turned out just fine. Delicious recipe. I did use a wooden spoon to stir the date mixture.

I tried making these today, with success! It tasted super delicious. I added coffee in the water and followed the rest of the recipe however, I did add pecan nuts to the dates mixture... I couldn't wait 4 hours before slicing because I was sending it over to a friend. Yum

This is the best fudgy biscuits i ever made!!! For the filling, i reduced the sugar and add a little bit of salt. For the crisps, i added salt, vanilla essence and almonds since i have extra. Omg...fudgy biscuit..im not a date fan but this is simply amazing. Will try to make with other fruit filling!!!!

Delicious! I added some orange zest and cardamom to the dates. Yes, bake less time if hot oven!

I made do with the ingredients I have under ECQ scenario. On the filling, since the dates are sweet, I skipped the sugar and didn't add lemon juice as I didn't have any. On the crisp, I used granola and 1/3 c brown sugar instead. On the time, I reduced it to 40-45 mins. The taste? EXCELLENT! I wish it could have looked as good as it tastes but I am happy! My husband and 2 children who have discriminating tastes loved it!
