#DD - Dates & Nuts Laddu is very easy to prepare. They are healthy energy balls with the goodness of dates, almonds, cashew, pistachios, coconut, roasted chana dal and sesame seeds. I then flavored them with cardamom powder and rose water. This is a perfect guilt free dessert apt for your Diwali celebration. These laddus are completely sugar free as it has only the natural sweetness of the dates. So they are diabetic friendly.
