Date Tarts Over 100 Years Old Recipe


Date Tarts Over 100 Years Old Recipe
DATE TARTS This is a recipe I obtained from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Crawford Estate in Quinlan, Texas in 1982. Notation on card indicates this has been in the family for over 100 years.
