Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the dry ingredients.
- In another bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients until well combined. Combine the dry and wet ingredients.
- Mix together the white and black sesame seeds in a small bowl.
- Shape about one tablespoon of the cookie dough into a ball, roll it in the sesame seeds and place it onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Using the flat bottom of a glass, gently press the cookie balls until it’s about 8mm (1/3 inch) thick.
- Repeat with the rest of the cookie dough and refrigerate for about 15 minutes. While the cookies are chilling, pre-heat the oven to 180 ºC (355 ºF).
- Bake the cookies for about 8 minutes or until the edges are set.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
- The chocolate tahini cookies keep well in an airtight container for about 1 week.
