Hi, Sue– I’ve not tried that, but in theory, it should work! Let me know if you try it!

Hi, Paula– thanks for finding that typo. What you saw as the second baking powder was actually supposed to be vanilla extract. It’s fixed now.

You can omit.

Can you not use the dates entirely?

Hey, Joanne– you can leave them out or sub in extra almonds OR chocolate chips instead. Personally, I love dates, but I get it– not everyone does! I love their chew, but you can definitely detect their flavor, so if you try them with another ingredient, let me know how it turns out 🙂

Are they really necessary in this recipe? Could they be omitted or substituted with something else?
Thanks, I always enjoy your recipes, keep them coming!

Hey, Judy– I’ve never tried that, so I’m not quite sure! I’m guessing it would taste great. Let me know if you try it!

Hi, Belinda– dried/candied. You can see a picture of them in the post.
