The recipe for mini dipping cookies without added sugars is super quick to make because you just need to put all the ingredients in the food processor, and in no time the dough is ready.
No added sugars because instead of sugar, I used my beloved dates, which, as you know, are very sweet fruits themselves but allow us to avoid using any other sweeteners.
Rolling the mini balls, I found it relaxing and fun, and my mind wandered to when my children used to have breakfast with round cereals.
So, just a few ingredients, including type 2 flour, which you can replace with whole wheat or oat flour, and pistachio flour, which can be substituted with other flours; but we will see this by reading the recipe.
If I have piqued your curiosity and you want to try it, jot down the ingredients; I’m almost sure you will love these mini dipping cookies too.

Storage:

FAQ
How many servings does it make?
I managed to have breakfast for a week; it depends on how many cookies you dunk in milk and how many people eat them. If needed, double the doses.
What can I use instead of pistachio flour?
Almond or hazelnut flour. If you can’t find them easily, finely chop the nuts.
If I wanted to use sugar, how much should I add?
It depends on how sweet you like them. These mini cookies are naturally sweet from the dates and chocolate chips. For these amounts, I’d say no more than 1/4 cup.
Can I use regular flour?
Yes, of course.
