To save on calories, I used low fat cream cheese. I also only added lemon juice and the sugar, left out the cream. Wonderful filling either way!

After reading most of the reviews, I changed the qtys a little bit. I reduced the amount of chocolate. By doing this, the mixture didnt become rock hard even after 2-3 days in the fridge! I served it with fresh strawberries and everyone enjoyed it!

I cant really rate this recipe bcos i didnt follow it exactly. I reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup each and added only 1 cup of dates and 2 cups nuts.Even with the reduction in sugar and dates, it was still pretty sweet for us. BUT, this is a very tasty cake! I am not sure if it should be called a "cookie' tho :) I made this in mini loaf pans to give away for the holidays. I doubled the recipe and got 16 perfect mini loafs! Next time tho, I will reduce the sugar even more to 3/4C maybe and use the 2 cups of dates stated in the recipe.
