Preheat oven to 350F.
Melt first the 2 ingredients together in a 9 inch square cake pan by putting the pan with the ingredients into the oven as it is preheating.
While the ingredients are melting, mix the next 4 ingredients together and the mix them into the melted butter and honey.
Lay apple slices in the syrup to completely cover the bottom of the cake pan in an attractive way (you may need more than one apple if you use a small one).
Fill a 1 cup measuring cup with pitted dates, but don’t pack the dates into the cup.
With the dates in the cup, fill the cup with water, then pour both dates and water into a blender.
Add ½ cup more water into the blender. Now blend till it forms a smooth, thick paste.
