Persimmon Bars Preparation

Persimmon Puree: You”ll need fully ripe pointed-tip persimmons-pulp should be soft and jelly like. Cut fruits in half and scoop out pulp with a spoon. Discard skin, seeds, and stem. In a blender or food processor, whirl pulp, a portion at a time, until smooth (you”ll need 2 or 3 med. size persimmons for 1 cup puree). For each cup puree, thoroughly stir in 1-1/2 tsp. lemon juice. To store, freeze in 1-cup batches in rigid containers; thaw, covered, at room temperature. Prepare persimmon puree; measure out 1 cup and stir in baking soda. Set aside. In a large bowl, lightly beat egg; then stir in sugar, oil, and dates. In another bowl, stir together flour, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves; add to date mixture alternately with persimmon mixture, stirring just until blended. Stir in walnuts. Spread batter evenly in a lightly greased, flour-dusted 10 by 15-inch rimmed baking pan. Bake in a 350 degrees F oven for 25 minutes or until top is lightly browned and a pick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool in pan on a rack for 5 minutes. Prepare Lemon Glaze: In a small bowl, stir together 1 cup powdered sugar and 2 tbs. lemon juice until smooth. Spread over cookies. Let cool completely; then cut into 2 by 2-1/2 inch bars. Store covered. Makes 2-1/2 dozen. (From: Cookies by Sunset) Converted by MMCONV vers. 1.00 From Gemini”s MASSIVE MealMaster collection
