Peasecods Preparation

Combine first 3 ingredients in a large bowl, and cut in chilled margarine with a pastry blender. Combine milk and egg yolk; add to flour mixture, stirring until a dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and knead lightly 3 to 4 times. Wrap in heavy-duty plastic wrap, and chill 1 hour. Place dates and next 5 ingredients in food processor; process until smooth. Set date mixture aside. Combine egg white and water; beat with a wire whisk, and set aside. Divide dough in half; cover and refrigerate half of dough. Turn the remaining half of dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and roll to 1/8-inch thickness; cut into 18 rounds, using a 3-inch cutter. Working with 1 round at a time, gently grasp opposite edges, and pull into an oval shape. Moisten the edges of the dough with egg white mixture. Spoon 1 teaspoon date mixture onto half of each oval. Fold dough over filling; seal edges by pressing with a fork dipped in flour. Carefully place on baking sheets coated with cooking spray; brush tops with egg white mixture, and sprinkle with 1-1/2 teaspoons sugar. Repeat procedure with the remaining dough, date mixture, egg white mixture, and remaining 1-1/2 teaspoons sugar. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
