DATE ROLLS

Makes :
24 Rolls

Preparation Time :
45 minutes

Cooking Time :
40 minutes

Preparation Method :

  • Make the filling first. Melt the butter together with the water in a saucepan, then add the chopped dates. Cook on a low heat, stirring the dates and pressing down until they become a soft paste. Remove and cool.
  • To make the dough, sift the flour into a mixing bowl. Cut the soft butter into small pieces and work it into the flour with your fingers. Add sugar and mix it thoroughly. Make a well in the centre, pour in the oil and milk, then continue to knead the dough until pieces flake off the sides of the bowl. Knead for 10 more minutes, then roll into a ball and chill.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F / Gas Mark 4. Grease a large baking tray. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide into three portions. Knead each well.
  • On a floured board roll out and flatten a ball of dough. Cut into a neat rectangle shape. Spread one-third of the date mixture thinly over the top. Roll the rectangle into a sausage-shape and continue to roll backwards and forwards until it grows longer and thinner.
  • Slice this into flattened rounds about 4 cm thick. Repeat this process using the remaining balls of dough.
  • Place all the slices side by side on the greased baking sheet and prick the tops lightly with a fork. If you overcook them, they become hard so Bake for 25 - 30 minutes until slightly coloured . Allow to cool, then dust with icing sugar.
