For a richer flavor, consider using brown butter instead of softened butter. To prevent the dates from sticking to your knife, lightly dust them with flour before chopping. These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Feel free to experiment with other nuts, such as walnuts or almonds. A pinch of nutmeg can add a warm and comforting touch to these cookies.
