1/2 lb. butter
2 eggs
1 lb. dates, cut up
2 c. sugar
6 c. Rice Krispies
Angel flake coconut

In large heavy saucepan, melt butter on low heat. Add sugar, well-beaten eggs and dates; cook also on low heat until thickened, stir often. Remove from heat. Stir in Rice Krispies until well coated. While still warm, roll into balls using a scant teaspoonful. (Grease hands well with butter.) Roll balls in coconut. Cool completely before storing.
