Food for the Gods is a Philippine dessert that is very popular during the Christmas holidays — the cake squares are beautifully wrapped in colorful cellophane wrappers and given away as presents. My research has turned out nothing as to who first coined the name for this delicious, blondie-like cake that is traditionally made with dates and walnuts. Spain colonized the Philippines for over 300 years, and had a strong and far-reaching influence on our cuisine, which leads me to surmise that perhaps this is our adaptation of the Spanish delicacy called “Date Bread with Nuts.” The fact that this confection is so deliciously rich and decadent, and that the two main ingredients (dates and walnuts) are quite expensive back home, are very good reasons to claim that this is, indeed, food that’s fit for the gods.

Steps to make Filipino Food for the Gods

- In a large bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract and eggs. Mix well with a rubber spatula until you have a thick, cohesive mixture.

- Fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients using the spatula, until you can no longer see any flour remaining. You will have a very thick batter. Transfer the batter to the prepared brownie pan, evening out the surface as much as possible.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, turning the pan around halfway through the baking, until the top is nicely browned and looks crusty, and a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean. Transfer the baking pan to a rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
