For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of softened butter. Toast the walnuts before chopping them to enhance their nutty taste. If you don't have dates, you can substitute with dried cranberries or other chopped dried fruit. Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
