Gramma's Date Squares

"A date filled bar with a chewy oatmeal crust. This is my grandmother's recipe which my whole family loves. You can use almond extract instead of lemon, if you wish."

Ingredients :

• 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
• 1 1/2 cups sifted pastry flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 3/4 cup butter, softened
• 3/4 pound pitted dates, diced
• 1 cup water
• 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions :

Prep : 25M	Cook : 12M	Ready in : 50M

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine oats, pastry flour, salt, 1 cup brown sugar, and baking soda. Mix in the butter until crumbly. Press half of the mixture into the bottom of a 9 inch square baking pan.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the dates, water, and 1/3 cup brown sugar. Bring to a boil, and cook until thickened. Stir in lemon juice, and remove from heat. Spread the filling over the base, and pat the remaining crumb mixture on top.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in preheated oven, or until top is lightly toasted. Cool before cutting into squares.

Notes :

• Reynolds® Aluminum foil can be used to keep food moist, cook it evenly, and make clean-up easier.
