Pumpkin date logs

I was canning some pumpkin the other day and ended up running out of jars. I had a considerable amount of pumpkin puree left, and was trying to find things to make with it. My last cup of puree began as a total experiment and this is the result! If anyone tries these out, I would love the feedback. (I am not a great baker...) Feel free to play around with this...they were good, but I think they could be better!

PUMPKIN DATE LOGS

1 C pureed pumpkin
2 eggs
6 TBS Butter (softened)
1/4 C molasses
1 TBS pure vanilla extract
1 C shredded coconut
1 C coconut flour
1 C almond flour
1/4 Tsp baking soda
1/4 Tsp baking powder
1/4 Tsp cardamom
1/4 Tsp nutmeg
1 Tsp ginger
15 dates

Whisk pumpkin, eggs, vanilla, molasses, vanilla and butter together until smooth. Add 1/2 C of the shredded coconut. Sift the dry ingredients together and gradually add to the pumpkin mixture. Dough will become firm, and when flour is well mixed, put the dough in the fridge. Chill for an hour or so.
Chop dates in half and shape chilled dough around the date. Put the remaining coconut in a bowl and coat the cookie in the coconut. Place on a cookie sheet. Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes, until outside starts to brown. Enjoy!
