Dates have a great sweetening power. Proof? This cookie recipe with no sugar added, except for the natural sugar contained in the fruit. The date also contributes moistness to the dough, yielding a very tender result. Flour, cocoa powder and cinnamon are added, with a dark chocolate coating. A batch that runs the risk of getting gobbled up in under a day!
Use tender, sweet dates such as Medjool or Mazafati. Avoid dates that are too hard or dried out.
Once the balls of cookie dough are frozen, transfer them to an airtight container. They will keep for 3 months in the freezer. You can bake them from frozen for the same amount of time.
This large scoop is perfect for evenly measuring out batter for muffins and cupcakes or ground meat for hamburger patties. It also great for scooping mashed potatoes or ice cream.
