Tahini Cookies. Think of these tahini cookies as grown-up peanut butter cookies. The tahini lends a creamy, earthy flavor. Roll in sesame seeds, if desired, for added crunch. Place on one of the prepared baking sheets. This cookie recipe uses tahini (sesame seed butter purchased at a health food store or home made), also uses oatmeal, no flour, no sugar, no eggs and no dairy products.
As variation, add chopped apples, raisins or dates.
Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter, sugar.

Nutty, slightly sweet, and perfectly satisfying with the perfect crumbly texture. These shortbread cookies are made with a bit less butter than normal but don't lack any buttery goodness or tenderness, thanks to rich organic tahini paste!. Cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add vanilla and tahini, mix until well combined.

Every once in a while I get a new ingredient and put it in everything I make - this week it was tahini. I've been on a baking spree, putting tahini in some of my favorite recipes like banana bread, cake, shortbread and finally chocolate chip cookies. These cookies were some of the best chocolate chip cookies that have ever come out of my oven, and I don't say that lightly.
