Description: This date bar recipe has come down through the family over the years and used to be called Polk-a-Daters. They are also known as Date Fruit Bars, Date Nut Bars, Chocolate-Date Bars. However the important thing to remember is that this recipe for date bars is excellent. They are moist and not a real heavy chocolate dessert bar. |
