I am 'nutz' over this desert!! Because we are empty nesters, I made only half a recipe and pressed the cake part into a pie pan. I used walnuts instead of Brazil Nuts (personal preference) and soaked the dates before I made the frosting. It was wonderful!! I will definitely make it again soon! Maybe tomorrow! ;D
