Tahini is a Middle Eastern condiment made from hulled and toasted ground sesame. It is a main player in hummus recipes. The health benefits of tahini make this creamy condiment even more appealing. Tahini may help us absorb iron, control blood pressure, reduce blood clots and help prevent anemia, plus it's loaded with vitamins and minerals.
The dough for these moist tahini chocolate chip cookies needs to be cold before baking. Refrigerate the cookie dough at least one hour, but overnight is best if you have the time.
