Date Cake Recipe ingredients

To prepare this Date Cake Recipe, first cream half a cup of butter with three- fourths cup of sugar; add one beaten egg and a cup of sour cream in which has been dissolved one level teaspoon of baking soda. Flavor with nutmeg. Add just enough flour to make a dough that will roll out into a thin sheet. Divide it in two parts; over one-half spread a layer of finely chopped dates, lay the other sheet of paste on top, press lightly together, and cut into round or square cakes. Bake in a hot oven.
