How to Make Angel Delights
- In a large saucepan, combine 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar, and 1 cup (150g, packed) pitted dates.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted, the sugar is dissolved and the dates are softened and mostly melted (8-15 minutes). The mixture should be a shiny, brown, sticky mass.
- Remove from the heat and stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Add 3 cups (75g) toasted rice cereal and 1 cup (100g) shredded coconut.
- Stir well to combine thoroughly.
- Once the mixture is cool enough to handle (about 30 minutes), use a spoon or your hands to form 1-inch balls.
- Place the balls on a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 week, until chilled and set.
