My mother used to make date bars from the back of the Dromedary package too! And I have been searching for YEARS to find it as it is my only Christmas cookie memory from growing up - they are so good! However, the one that I am looking for has a crumb bottom, and the date mixture is cooked separately and then spread on top. Did you by any chance come across this one? You would be my Santa Claus if you could provide it.
