Pre-heat the oven to 350°. Use a blender, food processor or stick blender to mix all ingredients except the dates (or chocolate chips).
If using the fruits, chop them. Add them to the batter and stir gently with a spoon. If using chocolate chips, add them to the dough and fold into the mixture.
Place parchment paper or a Silpat on a cookie sheet (you need parchment paper, or else the cookies may stick).
Place spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the cookie sheet. The batter will be moister than regular cookie dough. Use the spoon to shape the mixture into a flat circle cookie shape. Repeat until all of the mixes is out.
Bake the cookies at 350° for about 10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
