Cooking Instructions
Place all ingredients (except dates and chocolate chips) into the pan in the order listed. Select white bread and push “Start” (dough will seem overly salt at first). Add dates and chips at the “beep”. With a dusting of confectioners’ sugar, quarter- round slices of this scrumptious bread can double as “brownies.”
