2 tablespoons butter
2 cups hot tap water
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
2 cups granulated sugar
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped walnuts (or whatever other
nuts you prefer) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease well 8 (15 ounce) cans with tops removed. Mix dates, baking soda, butter and water together in a large bowl; let cool a bit. Add remaining ingredients. Fill cans halfway. Place on a large baking sheet and bake for one hour; check with a wooden pick at 50 minutes because ovens vary so much. Leave in cans at least ten minutes before "shaking" out. Finish cooling on racks.
