These chewy, date- and walnut-packed bars are called ‘food for the gods’ with good reason (2024)

Buttery and chewy, rich and decadent is how I describe this classic Philippine dessert. It’s similar to blondies, but Medjool dates and walnuts lend a deep caramel flavor and toasty crunch with a nice hint of salt. These are especially popular during the holidays, wrapped in colorful red, blue, green and gold cellophane, making them a delectable dessert that is opened like a gift. You will find these at parties passed around the table, kids and adults having tucked them away in pockets and saved for later.
