Sift the dry ingredi ents, work in the shortening with a fork until well blended, add milk and well beaten egg to form a soft dough. Roll out on a-floured board and cut small rounds. Spread one with peanut butter, place one or two slices of dates and cover with another round. Press the edges together to enclose the butter and dates.
