    Title: Date Swirls
    Categories: Pastry
    Yield: 40 Swirls

    MMMMM---------------------------DOUGH--------------------------------
    1 c Butter
    1 1/2 c Unbleached white flour
    1/2 c Sour cream

    MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------
    2 c Dates; chopped
    1/2 c Water
    1/3 c Honey
    3 tb Butter

    Cut butter into flour until well blended (a food processor will do
    this in 10 seconds with the chopping blade). When the texture is that
    of corn meal, add sour cream and mix well until thoroughly blended.

    Cut dough evenly in half, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 4
    hours (set dough in the freezer for the first half hour if you're
    pinched for time) or overnight.

    Set a 1 qt saucepan over medium heat and add dates, water, honey, and
    butter. Bring to a boil and simmer, stirring occasionally until
    mixture is relatively smooth. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll pastry out on well-floured board into a
    rectangle approximately 18x14" by 1/4" thick. Spread half of date
    filling over dough to 1" from edges on all sides. If date filling is
    too thick and doesn't spread easily, thin with a little water.

    Roll dough up tightly lengthwise into a long, thin log. Cut 20 slices
    approximately 3/4" thick. Set on buttered cookie sheet at least 1"
    apart. Bake 20 minutes. Repeat with second batch of dough.

    I apologize. I unintentionally posted these recipes to the wrong group.
