Date Pudding
1½ cups pitted dates. ½ cup milk. 1 cup chopped nuts. 1 cup sugar. 3 eggs. 1 cup flour. 2 tablespoons butter. 1 teaspoon vanilla. 1 teaspoon baking powder. ¼ teaspoon salt.
Mix the butter and sugar and add the beaten eggs and milk. Sift the dry ingredients and add them to the liquid mixture, reserving enough flour to coat the dates and nuts. Add them and the vanilla. Bake in a shallow greased pan in a very slow oven (250°F.) for 1 hour 45 minutes, until set in the center. Cut in squares and serve with whipped cream.
