Dimming USB Led Lamp

Dimming USB Led Lamp

So, currently I have a project that consist in the following:
We have 2 USB Led lamps. (e.g 13 leds, 5V, ~200mA)
To these lamps, we would like to control the intensity of the light, through a raspberry pi.
So my main question would be what would be the simplest and cheapest way to achieve this?.
So far from what i have seen in internet a digital potentiometer would work on this, maybe using a DS1669 or a AD5204.
Sorry if this question is too stupid, but I'm out of my field here, and I would like some suggestions as how to go about this. So if anyone is willing to put me in the right direction, that would be really really cool.
thanks
