How to Make Favourite Date Walnut Biscuits
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the vanilla extract and egg until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the chopped dates and walnuts until evenly distributed.
- Roll the mixture into walnut-sized balls.
- Place the balls onto the prepared baking tray, leaving some space between each.
- Gently press down on each ball with a fork to flatten slightly.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the baking tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, store in an airtight container (and hide them from those with a sweet tooth!).
