Cream shortening and sugar; add egg and mix well. Add persimmon pulp (it
will be gelatinous with the soda mixed in) and dry ingredients. Fold
together. Add dates and nuts last. Drop onto greased cookie sheet from
spoon. Bake at 350 F for about 10 to 12 minutes–til they are as you like
them. Cool and enjoy!!
