Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
3/4 cup tahini
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed dark-brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
Sesame seeds (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line several baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, tahini, and both sugars together until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, and mix on medium speed until well combined.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, sift flour and baking soda together. Add to the butter mixture, and beat just to combine.
  • Scoop out 2 tablespoons of dough, and shape into a ball. Roll in sesame seeds, if desired, for added crunch. Place on one of the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with remaining dough, placing scoops 3 inches apart. Dip the tines of a fork in warm water; press the dough balls lightly with the back of the fork to flatten them slightly (dip the fork back in the water for each dough ball, to prevent sticking).
  • Transfer to the oven, and bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes, rotating the baking sheets between the oven shelves halfway through baking. Transfer baking sheets to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

MARTHA'S TAHINI COOKIES



Martha's Tahini Cookies image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes about 20

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 large egg, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup tahini, well stirred
1/2 cup white sesame seeds, or a combination of black and white, lightly toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line four baking sheets with parchment.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in tahini. Reduce speed to low; beat in flour mixture until just combined. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Spread sesame seeds on a shallow dish. Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough; roll into a ball. Roll in sesame seeds until thoroughly coated, then transfer to prepared baking sheet.

MARBLED TAHINI COOKIES



Marbled Tahini Cookies image

Inky black tahini gives these cookies their dark swirl, sandy texture and nutty taste, which is reminiscent of halvah. But, if you can't get your hands on black tahini, simply omit it. Instead, add 1/2 cup plain tahini to all the dough in Step 4, and skip Step 5. The crunchy black sanding-sugar edge makes them truly modern, but you can also use black sesame seeds or turbinado sugar to adorn the cookies.

Provided by Susan Spungen

Categories     snack, cookies and bars, dessert

Time 1h

Yield 2 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups/385 grams all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Cooking spray
1 cup/225 grams unsalted butter (2 sticks), softened
1 cup/125 grams unsifted confectioners' sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature, plus 1 egg white
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup plain tahini
3 tablespoons black tahini
1/4 cup/50 grams coarse black sanding sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk to combine 3 cups flour, the salt and baking powder; set aside. Coat a small loaf pan with cooking spray, then line with plastic wrap, tucking it into the corners and leaving plenty of overhang. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and confectioners' sugar on medium-high speed until fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes, scraping bowl as needed. Add the large egg and the vanilla; beat on medium-high until combined, about 2 minutes, scraping the bowl as needed.
  • Add flour mixture; beat on low speed until combined; then increase speed to medium and beat until dough starts to clump together, scraping bowl as needed.
  • Remove dough from bowl, knead lightly and form into a fat log. Using a bench scraper or knife, cut into two pieces, one about 1/3 of the dough, and the other 2/3 of the dough. Return the larger piece to the bowl, add the plain tahini, and beat on medium speed until fully combined. Remove from bowl and set aside. Add the smaller piece and the black tahini to the bowl and beat on medium speed until fully combined.
  • On a generously floured surface, using a bench scraper or a knife, cut the white dough in half. Pat half the white dough into a 5-inch square. Cut the black dough in half, then pat half the black dough on top of the flattened white dough to match dimensions. Repeat with remaining white dough, then black dough, so you have four alternating layers of white dough and black dough. Cut in half crosswise, and gently knead and roll one piece to marble the two colors together. Repeat with the second piece of dough. Stack both pieces of dough together (they should be fairly soft at this point, so be gentle), and briefly knead the pieces together to form one dough.
  • Press dough into prepared pan, and fold the plastic wrap over the top to seal. Gently press down to even out the surface as much as possible. Chill until firm, preferably overnight, or at least a few hours and up to 3 days ahead, or freeze up to 3 months.
  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Beat the egg white with 1 teaspoon water to thin it out. Spread the sanding sugar out on a small baking sheet. Remove the block of dough from the loaf pan and unwrap it. Trim the slanted sides and the top if you want them really square. Very lightly brush the outside of the block with the egg white mixture. Press the block firmly to coat all sides (except the ends) with the sugar, sprinkling and pressing it on to cover any bare spots.
  • Cut the block into barely 1/4-inch-thick slices, and lay them out 1 inch apart on two parchment- or silicone mat-lined baking sheets. Freeze until firm, about 10 minutes.
  • Bake until cookies are golden underneath, 14 to 16 minutes. Let cool a few minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer cookies to wire racks to cool completely. Cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

SALTED TAHINI CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Salted Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies image

When the chef Danielle Oron was growing up in the New Jersey suburbs, she knew that her Israeli family's habits of dousing vanilla ice cream with tahini and spreading halvah on toast would be considered odd. Sesame has long been shunned in American desserts, but its addition to a confection can add a nutty, salty undertone, and sesame desserts are now popping up all over the place. These chocolate chip cookies, developed by Ms. Oron, are a great place to start for the home baker seeking more sesame. Rich, savory and sweet, they are one of the rare variations that are just as good as the original.

Categories     snack, cookies and bars, dessert

Time 45m

Yield 12 to 18 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 ounces/113 grams unsalted butter at room temperature
1/2 cup/120 milliliters tahini, well stirred
1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons/150 grams all-purpose flour, or matzo cake meal (See tip)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 3/4 cups/230 grams chocolate chips or chunks, bittersweet or semisweet
Flaky salt, like fleur de sel or Maldon

Steps:

  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, tahini and sugar at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add egg, egg yolk and vanilla and continue mixing at medium speed for another 5 minutes.
  • Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder and kosher salt into a large bowl and mix with a fork. Add flour mixture to butter mixture at low speed until just combined. Use a rubber spatula to fold in chocolate chips. Dough will be soft, not stiff. Refrigerate at least 12 hours; this ensures tender cookies.
  • When ready to bake, heat oven to 325 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick baking mat. Use a large ice cream scoop or spoon to form dough into 12 to 18 balls.
  • Place the cookies on the baking sheet at least 3 inches apart to allow them to spread. Bake 13 to 16 minutes until just golden brown around the edges but still pale in the middle to make thick, soft cookies. As cookies come out of the oven, sprinkle sparsely with salt. Let cool at least 20 minutes on a rack.

TAHINI COOKIES



Tahini Cookies image

Think of these honey-sweetened treats as grown-up peanut butter cookies. The tahini lends a creamy, earthy flavor.

Categories     Bon Appétit     Cookies     Dessert     Sesame     Bake     Honey

Yield Makes about 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons honey
3/4 cup tahini
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds

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.

SALTED CHOCOLATE CHIP TAHINI COOKIES



Salted Chocolate Chip Tahini Cookies image

Adapted from Modern Israeli Cooking: 100 New Recipes for Traditional Classics by Danielle Oron. I used chopped chocolate, rather than chocolate chips, for these cookies since I wanted large chunks of oozing chocolate rather than little bits of chocolate here and there. (But feel free to use chips if you'd like.) Normally when I chop chocolate for cookies, I add any small bits and pieces on the cutting board along with the bigger chunks. But for these, I wanted distinct, more assertive pieces of chocolate, so I sorted through and just used large chunks, saving the smaller bits for another baking project. I baked these cookies in a larger size, then tried them in smaller portions, and give baking times for each. Whichever size you bake them in, since everyone's oven is different, it's important to use visual clues rather than rely on precise minutes and numbers to tell when they're done. Keep an eye on them during the final minutes of baking; the cookies are done when quite pale in the center and browned around the edges. Note that the dough is best when it rests in the refrigerator overnight. You could bake them sooner, if you just can't wait.

Provided by David

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 tablespoons (115g, 4 ounces) unsalted butter (at room temperature)
1/2 cup (120ml) tahini (well stirred)
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
1/2 cup (90g) packed light brown sugar
1 large egg (at room temperature)
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (150g) flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
2 cups (280g) bittersweet or semisweet chocolate chunks (or chocolate chips)
flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter, tahini, granulated sugar and brown sugar on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes, until fluffy. (The dough can also be made in a large mixing bowl, stirred with a spatula.)
  • Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides. Add the egg, the yolk, and vanilla, and continue to mix for another minute, stopping the mixer to scrape down the sides of the bowl during mixing, to make sure the eggs are getting incorporated.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and kosher or sea salt. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients until just combined, then add the chocolate chips. Do not overmix. Cover the dough and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 325ºF (160ºC). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Form the cookies into rounds using an ice cream scoop, or your hands. For small cookies make each 1 1/2-inch (3,5cm), for larger cookies, make them 2-inches (5cm) round. Place them evenly spaced on the baking sheets, 3-inches (8cm) apart). Bake one sheet at a time, so you can keep an eye on them, in the middle rack of the oven.
  • Bake the cookies, turning the baking sheet in the oven midway during baking, until the cookies are golden brown around the edges but still pale in the center. For small cookies, about 12 minutes, for larger cookies, about 14 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, sprinkle cookies with a bit of flaky sea salt, and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet. Bake the remaining cookies the same way.

My family's favorite tahini cookies! 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! These cookies take just 5 ingredients, a couple bowls, and a hand mixer. So simple! But be sure to read the tips and step-by-step guide above.

TAHINI CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE



Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe image

Soft, chewy, nutty and just enough sweet! That's the story of these addictive tahini chocolate chip cookies. Rich tahini paste eliminates the use of butter, while adding a subtle nutty flavor that takes chocolate chip cookies to a whole new level of delicious.

Provided by Suzy Karadsheh

Categories     Dessert

Time 23m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup tahini ((8 ounces), I used Soom Tahini )
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (more for dusting)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cup bittersweet chocolate chips (I used 60% Cacao bittersweet chocolate chips by chiradelli)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees F and position a rack in the middle. Line two large baking sheets with parchment.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the tahini, sugar, and brown sugar. Mix with a wooden spoon for a couple of minutes until well combined (the mixture will be crumbly).
  • Add the eggs, 3 tablespoons cold water, and the vanilla extract. Mix for another 2 minutes until well-incorporated (the mixture should be smooth and fudgy).
  • Stir in the salt, baking soda, and ground cinnamon. Add the flour and mix until combined. Add the chocolate chips and stir until well combined.
  • Scoop heaping 1 tablespoons of the dough and arrange them 2 inches apart on the prepared sheet pans. Wet the back of a spoon and use it to lightly flatten the tops of the cookie dough portions (you're looking for the dough to be about ½ inch in thickness give or take).
  • Bake on the middle rack for about 8 to 11 minutes, depending on how soft or crunchy you like your cookies. If you like your cookies on the softer side, pull them out sometime around the 8 or 9 minutes and let them cool on the sheet pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheets.
  • Dust with more ground cinnamon before serving (optional).

CARAMELISED HONEY AND TAHINI COOKIES



Caramelised honey and tahini cookies image

Use up that jar of sesame paste in the back of your cupboard to bake these decadent honey and tahini biscuits. They're sweet, salty and totally addictive

Provided by Liberty Mendez

Categories     Afternoon tea, Treat

Time 30m

Yield Makes 18

Number Of Ingredients 10

150g honey
150g salted butter , cubed
75g dark brown soft sugar
75g caster sugar
100g tahini
1 large egg , plus 1 large yolk
250g plain flour
¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda
1 tsp sea salt flakes
1 tbsp mixed black & white sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Bring the honey to a boil in a small pan set over a medium-high heat. Boil for 5 mins until it has darkened and smells nutty - don't worry if it looks quite dark, this will add flavour. Whisk briefly, then remove from the heat and carefully whisk in the butter until melted. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and leave to cool.
  • Tip both the sugars, tahini, egg and yolk into the bowl with the honey mix, then beat to combine. In a separate bowl, mix the flour and bicarb together, then gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until it comes together into a dough. Chill for 3 hrs, or overnight.
  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line two baking trays with baking parchment. Roll the dough into 18 even balls (weigh for accuracy, if you like - they should be around 45g each), and arrange on the trays spaced 5cm apart. Gently press down with the back of a spoon to slightly flatten the tops, then sprinkle over the sea salt flakes and sesame seeds and bake for 10-12 mins.
  • Tap the tray on a work surface to slightly flatten the cookies. Leave to cool on the trays for 10 mins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep in an airtight container for up to three days.

HOMEMADE TAHINI



Homemade Tahini image

Making your own tahini, a staple in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, is so simple you'll find it hard to go back. You need only two ingredients and a handful of minutes to produce a fresh, nutty tahini that will enhance everything from hummus and baba ghanoush to salad dressings and even desserts. You can make tahini with various kinds of oil, such as grapeseed, sesame and canola. We use one of the more popular picks -- vegetable oil -- and add just enough to yield a smooth but not runny tahini.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     condiment

Time 10m

Yield about 1 1/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 cups hulled sesame seeds (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil, plus more if needed

Steps:

  • Put the sesame seeds in a food processor and blend on high until the mixture turns crumbly, about 1 minute. Add the oil and blend on high, stopping every minute or so to scrape down the sides, until the mixture is completely smooth, 5 to 8 minutes. You might need to add another tablespoon of oil to reach the desired consistency. The tahini should be smooth and pourable. Store in a clean jar in the refrigerator for about a month and give it a good stir before using.

  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Beat butter, sugar, and tahini in a medium bowl with a hand mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add egg, lemon zest and juice, and vanilla; beat until combined, about 1 minute, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. With mixer running on low speed, gradually add flour and salt; beat until dough comes together. If using, fold in cacao nibs until combined.
  • Divide dough in half; place each half on a large piece of plastic wrap. Fold plastic wrap over to cover dough, and, using your hands, roll each into a smooth log 1 inch in diameter. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine sesame seeds on a small sheet pan or flat plate. Remove dough logs from plastic wrap, and roll in sesame seeds, pressing firmly so seeds adhere evenly. Slice dough logs into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Place 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake cookies in preheated oven until golden around edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets 5 minutes; transfer to a wire rack, and let cool completely, about 15 minutes. Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 5 days.

NEED A SUBSTITUTE FOR TAHINI? HERE ARE 6 GREAT IDEAS - PUREWOW

Estimated Reading Time 6 mins
  • DIY tahini. The good news is that tahini is actually super simple to make and the homemade stuff is the best substitute for the store-bought variety. To make your own tahini, all you need is sesame seeds and a neutral oil.
  • Sunflower seed butter. On the off-chance that you have sunflower seed butter but not tahini in the pantry, you’re in luck. Simply blend some sesame oil into that seed butter and the resulting paste will be a convincing tahini imposter, both in terms of texture and taste.
  • Cashew and almond butter. The price tag is a bit steep when it comes to these spreads, but they have a mild richness that works well when substituting for the flavor and texture of tahini.
  • Peanut butter. This swap is likely the most practical solution because unless you have an allergy, you probably have some PB hanging around your pantry.
  • Greek yogurt. True, something will be lost when you substitute tahini with Greek yogurt but depending on the recipe, that might not be such a bad thing.
  • Sesame oil. When it comes to both marinades and salad dressings, sesame oil can save the day. It comes from the same source as tahini and it has a very similar flavor profile.

  • Bake the cookies for about 8 minutes, until the bottoms are golden; shift the pans from top to bottom halfway through. Transfer the cookies to a rack and let cool before serving.

  • Set oven: Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non-stick spray.
  • Prepare flaxseed: Combine ground flaxseed with water in a small bowl and set aside for 5-10 minutes or until thick and gelatinous.
  • Toast coconut: If you're adding coconut flakes in the recipe preheat a sauté pan to medium heat. Add the coconut flakes and stir constantly until they turn a golden color (this will take about 1-3 minutes). Remove them from the pan and allow to cool. This step is optional, but highly recommended.
  • Mix ingredients: Once the flaxseed mixture has setup, use a medium size mixing bowl to combine tahini, maple syrup, flaxseed mixture, cinnamon, sea salt, baking soda and vanilla. Stir together until everything is incorporated.
