Ingredients:

4-1/2 cups flour

1/2 cup sugar

3 Tablespoons baking powder

2-1/2 teaspoons salt

1 cup coconut

1 cup chopped dates

1 cup chopped walnuts

1 stick butter

3 eggs

1-1/4 cup milk

Instructions:

Stir the first four ingredients thoroughly. Stir in the coconut, dates, and walnuts. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add beaten eggs and milk; stir until dough clings together. Knead gently 12 to 15 times on a lightly floured board. Cut dough in fourths and form a patted down square from each part, about 1/2-inch thick. Cut each square diagonally twice to form four triangles. These triangles can be placed on a sheet and frozen until ready to bake. Thaw to room temperature prior to baking. Place triangles which you wish to bake on ungreased sheet. Bake at 375 degrees until golden brown (12 to 15 minutes).
