Apparently, my grandmother Dietz’s recipe for Mollie’s Raw Apple Cake in the Dec. 14, 2022, issue of The Epoch Times struck a nerve, or maybe a sweet tooth. In response to several requests for her recipe for date bars (mentioned in the article), I’m delighted to share that recipe here. It’s a holiday favorite and tradition in my family but good any time of the year.
