Date-Nut Bars with Equal

Dee whitcomb (Minnesota) says:

I would call this a cake, not bars. It is soft and raises up to the top of the pan. It is very good warm and would be nice served with some whipped topping. I was experimenting with recipes for bars for a 60th Anniversary party for my parents. This does not really fit into the bar category. I would make it again for a small cake, however. It is very tasty and packed with fiber!
