Beat butter with sugar until creamy. Add eggs one by one and beat well until combined. Sift dry ingredients together and add in the butter mixture gradually in two lots alternate with milk. Fold nicely and lightly with a wooden spoon. Add honey and fold. Finally add drained and chopped dates covered with a little flour so that they don't stick to the bottom oof your pan.
