Cook margarine, sugar, dates on the stove top over medium-high heat for 7 minutes, stirring continuously. Dates should be melted after 7 minutes.

Form into "fingers" 2 inches long and at most 1 inch in diameter. (Depending on the size of your hands, about the diameter of your index finger but probably not as long.) Form into fingers while still warm. Butter your hands to make the mixture easier to work with.

After fingers have cooled, drop in baggie with powdered sugar.
