    Categories: Muffins, Breads, Fruits, Nuts
    Yield: 12 Servings

    1 1/2 c Dates; chopped
    3 c Water; hot
    3/4 c Butter
    1 1/2 c Granulated sugar
    1 1/2 c Water
    1 c Pecan pieces
    2 Extra-large eggs
    1 1/2 ts Baking soda
    1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract
    1/4 ts Salt
    2 3/4 c All-purpose flour

    In a medium bowl, combine the dates and the 3 cups of
    hot water. Let stand for 10 minutes. Drain and discard
    the water. Cover the dates and refrigerate until they
    are cold.

    Set the oven @ 350ºF/175ºC. Line 12 medium muffin cups
    with paper baking cups or grease lightly.

    In a large bowl, beat together the butter/margarine, and
    sugar until creamy. Add the 1-1/2 cups of water, the
    pecan pieces, eggs, baking soda, vanilla extract, and
    salt. Mix until well blended.

    Add the flour. Mix until the dry ingredients are just
    moistened. Fold in the cold dates. Spoon the batter into
    the prepared muffin cups.

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until
    a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    Let the muffins stand a few minutes before removing from
    the muffin tin(s).

    Makes 12 muffins.

    TIPS: TO FREEZE THE LEFTOVER MUFFINS: Place the muffins
    in a plastic freezer bag or wrap in foil.

    TO SERVE: Preheat the oven to 350ºF/175ºC. Bake foil
    wrapped frozen muffins for 15 to 20 minutes.

    TO REHEAT IN A MICROWAVE: Unwrap the frozen muffins and
    place on on a napkin or microwaveable plate. Microwave
    on high (full power) for 20 to 30 seconds for each
    frozen muffin.
