Sesame Tahini Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• Beat the brown sugar, butter, tahini and granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes (use the paddle attachment if using a stand mixer). Beat in the eggs one at a time, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add the flour mixture and beat until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chunks by hand. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the dough and refrigerate until very firm, at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
• Position oven racks in the upper and lower third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Stir together the white and black sesame seeds in a small bowl. Scoop a leveled 1/4-cup mound of the cookie dough (an ice cream scoop works well here), then dip the top of the mound into the sesame seeds and transfer to one of the parchment-lined baking sheets. Continue scooping until you have 6 mounds on each baking sheet. Refrigerate the remaining cookie dough.
• Bake, rotating the baking sheets from front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, about 18 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely. Allow the baking sheets to cool, then line with fresh parchment and repeat the process with the remaining dough.

Steps:

• Place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat to 350°F. Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter, sugar, and honey in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in tahini, then add dry ingredients in 2 batches, beating after each addition until fully combined. Dough will be slightly sticky.
• Place sesame seeds in a small bowl. Scoop out heaping tablespoons of dough (about 1 oz.) and roll into balls. Dip tops of balls in sesame seeds, pressing to adhere, and place, sesame side up, on 2 parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about 2" apart. Bake cookies, rotating baking sheets halfway through, until golden brown, 13-15 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets (cookies will firm as they cool).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the tahini, honey and cinnamon. Mix in walnuts and oats until well blended. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be about 2 inches apart.
• Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are slightly brown. Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Mix first 6 ingredients until incorporated well, then add remaining ingredients to form dough.
• Roll into balls on baking sheet and press down with fork. If adding sesame seeds, lightly press down the ball with your hand, sprinkle with some sesame seeds, and then push down with fork.
• Bake 10-15 minutes based on your elevation and how hard or soft you prefer your cookies.
