Soft Double Chocolate Tahini Cookies

Soft Double Chocolate Tahini Cookies

I kept eyeing my near full jar of tahini sitting around after making edamame hummus.  Naturally, I started brainstorming what I was going to do with the rest, and I decided to try baking with it!  Although ground sesame seeds in cookies may seem a bit odd at first, I can assure you it is a great addition.  I wasn’t sure what to expect when I took my first, fresh out of the oven bite, but wow… it was delicious!  Super soft and delightfully rich, these double chocolate tahini cookies are fluffy, flavorful, and pair perfectly with vanilla ice cream!
