Skillet Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 pkg. chopped dates
1 c. sugar
1 stick butter or oleo
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 c. Rice Krispies cereal
1 c. chopped nuts (I use pecans)
powdered sugar

Preparation

Put butter in cold skillet.
Turn heat to low and melt.
Add sugar and egg, stirring well to mix egg in before it starts to scramble.
When all mixed, add dates and turn heat to medium. Stir constantly while cooking, mashing dates.
Cook about 8 minutes.
Do not overcook or it will scorch. This stuff is going to be hot.
Pour out onto a buttered cookie sheet and spread a little.
Butter hands and roll mixture into small balls. Try not to make them too large.
Then roll them in powdered sugar.
When all have been rolled, I go back and roll them again.
