It's a pastry filled with dates. ROLL :1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour1 stick less 1 tablespoon sweet butter, softened1 tablespoon powdered sugar1 tablespoon oil2 tablespoons milk

FILLING :2 tablespoons butter2 tablespoons water1 1/2 cups dates, pitted and chopped

Make the filling first. Melt the butter together with the water in a saucepan, then add the chopped dates. Cook on a low heat, stirring the dates and pressing down until they become a soft paste. Remove and cool.

To make the dough, sift the flour into a mixing bowl. Cut the soft butter into small pieces and work it into the flour with your fingers. Add the sugar and mix in thoroughly. Make a well in the center, pour in the oil and milk, then continue to knead the dough until pieces flake off the sides of the bowl. Knead a further 10 minutes, then roll into a ball and chill.

Now preheat the oven to 350° F and grease a large baking tray. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide into three portions. Knead each well.

On a floured board roll out and flatten a ball of dough. Cut into a neat rectangle shape. Spread one-third of the date mixture thinly over the top. Roll the rectangle into a roll and continue to roll backwards and forwards until it grows longer and thinner. Slice this into flat, diagonal sections, about 1 1/2 inches thick. Repeat this process using the remaining balls of dough.

Place all slices side by side on the greased baking sheet and prick the tops lightly with a fork. Bake for 25-30 minutes in the pre-heated oven until slightly colored (if you overcook them, become hard). Allow to cool, then dust with powdered sugar.

Makes about 24 rolls.

What is worth of a roll of uncirculated pennies 1960 psm?

In 1960, two varieties of Lincoln cents were issued from the Philadelphia Mint, a large date and a small date. The small date has the higher value so you need to find out which ones are in the roll. A collector or dealer should give you a better idea of value after the coins are seen.
