Jerusalem Toffees (baked dates)
There isn’t much of a recipe for Jerusalem Toffees, but it has to be shared.
Jerusalem Toffees are simply gooey and chewy baked dates. Slightly crispy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside.
They are fast becoming my go-to sweet treat. Next I have to try these covered in chocolate.

Remove from oven and transfer the dates to a plate to cool. Eat warm from the oven or cool and store in an airtight container.
