- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a saucepan, cook dates, sugar and water. Add vanilla. Stir. Let cool.
- Meanwhile, in a bowl, sift all dry ingredients to make the dough.
- Cut the shortening in small pieces. Add to dry ingredients. Knead with hands, without bringing it homogeneous. Incorporate eggs to the mixture. Let rest 30 minutes.
- Roll the dough to 1/2 inch thick (it didn't mention on a floured surface, maybe it's better).
- Spread the cool filling on the dough. Roll. Cut in slices of 1/2 inch thick. Put on a baking sheet. Cook in the oven for about 10 minutes.
