      Yield: 12 Servings
 
  1 1/2 c  Dates; chopped
      3 c  Water; hot
    3/4 c  Butter
  1 1/2 c  Granulated sugar
  1 1/2 c  Water
      1 c  Pecan pieces
      2    Extra-large eggs
  1 1/2 ts Baking soda
  1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract
    1/4 ts Salt
  2 3/4 c  A-P flour
 
  In a medium bowl, combine the dates and the 3 cups of

  with paper baking cups or grease lightly.
  
  In a large bowl, beat together the butter/margarine, and

  pecan pieces, eggs, baking soda, vanilla extract, and
  salt. Mix until well blended.
  
  Add the flour. Mix until the dry ingredients are just
  moistened. Fold in the cold dates. Spoon the batter into
  the prepared muffin cups.
  
  Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until
  a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  
  Let the muffins stand a few minutes before removing from
  the muffin tin(s).
  
  Makes 12 muffins.
