Well, here it's the third week in July and it's raining and we're experiencing unseasonably cool temps. What's a Cookgirl to do stuck inside the house all day? A: Bake cookies! This recipe is from the Delicious Living magazine and elaborated by me to give the cookies a Middle Eastern flavor. Gluten-free, egg and dairy free-easy! The barberries, cardamom and orange blossom water were all my addition.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place walnuts, dates (and barberries if using) in a small food processor and PULSE until coarsely ground.
- PULSE in oil, vanilla, cinnamon, cardamom, orange blossom water and salt. Stop the machine from time to time and scrape down the sides of the bowl to help the mixture to blend well and form into a ball properly.
- Continue to pulse until mixture begins to form a ball.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop dough (I used a small, oiled cookie scoop), 1 tablespoon at a time, onto prepared baking sheet, forming into balls; flatten slightly.
- Bake for 6-8 minutes, until firm.
- Cool on baking sheet.
