Powdered sugar or flaked coconut

1 tablespoon butter or margarine

2 cups crisped rice cereal

1 cup chopped pecans

2. Combine sugar and eggs in a large saucepan; stir well. Add dates and butter; cook over low heat, stirring constantly, 8 minutes or until mixture is thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat; stir in cereal, pecans and vanilla, mixing well.
