Sugar Free Fudge Cookies

These are my go-to sweet treats when I'm on my once/month sugar detox weeks! They are so easy, packed with healthy fats, fiber, but without any sweeteners (dates, bananas, figs, etc.). Don't get me wrong, I love baking with these fruits for a healthy alternative to sugar, but sometimes I like to make a Keto treat!
