A lot of people of complaning that the ball don't hold together very well but mind did just fine. I used pitted medjool dates and chopped them myself. Those dates are nice and soft and that's probably why mine fared better than most. The recipie is very sweet. I wonder if you could increase the dates and reduce the sugar.

Award winning?I made these because the recipe was "award winning" and the other comments said they were simple to make. And how can you go wrong with dates and coconut and butter? But this recipe has too much sugar (the dates & cereal are plenty sweet), and the results are unappealing both in taste and appearance (although mine did stay soft and chewy and not too hard as others here said). I put them on the Christmas cookie plates I gave to friends and family. All declared them OK, but not nearly up to the standards of the other cookies on the plate. Will definitely not make these again.Pros: One pot, few ingredientsCons: Too sweet, taste only OK

Sweet treat These were okay - included them in my holiday cookie baskets this year because I had some Rice Crispies that needed to be used up. They were easy and they are quite tasty (also quite sweet), but making them was kind of a hassle. You have to move super fast, because once the "dough" has cooled too much, they don't want to hold together anymore. I don't know that I would make them again, but they seemed to be enjoyed by those on the receiving end. Pros: Tasty, easy Cons: You have to move quickly!

Really easy to make and taste just great. I used splenda instead of regular sugar. As for the comment of how to make them stay softer I would say eat them quicker.

These are FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to take these to a cookie swap tomorrow!!! These taste VERY similar to a cookie my mother makes every Christmas...and these were easier to make...and tasted just as good! I am so excited to have this recipe! It was so easy to make!!! I am going to try making it with cranberries and apricots too!
