FAQ:

Can I use regular-sized chocolate chips?
Yes, you can use regular-sized chocolate chips, but mini chips are recommended for a better distribution throughout the bites.

Can I make these without nuts?
Absolutely! You can omit the nuts if you prefer, or substitute them with dried fruit, like raisins or cranberries, for added sweetness.

Can I freeze the dough?
Yes, you can freeze the dough. Roll the dough into balls, freeze them on a baking sheet, then transfer the frozen balls to a zip-top bag. When ready to bake, just place them on the baking sheet and bake from frozen, adding a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.
