Tahini chocolate cookies: Soft, chewy & irresistible
The nutty, chocolatey pleasure that inspires
Do you love cookies that are soft and juicy on the inside, but at the same time have an exciting depth of flavor? Then these tahini chocolate cookies are just right for you! The creamy tahini gives the cookies a subtle, nutty twist and harmonizes perfectly with the bitter dark chocolate. The best thing: With a few simple ingredients, you can conjure up an irresistible snack in no time.
Why tahini is so healthy?
Sesame is a real nutrient bomb: rich in calcium, iron, magnesium and vitamins B1, B2 and B6. It supports your bone health, provides valuable antioxidants and is a real superfood in the kitchen.
Tip: Make sure the ingredients are as organic as possible to support sustainable agriculture and get the most out of your tahini.
Gluten-free & vegan – the perfect cookie for everyone
Not only is this recipe incredibly delicious, but it is also naturally gluten-free and vegan. Thanks to the absence of animal products and gluten-containing flour, these cookies are perfect for anyone with special dietary needs. This makes them the ideal snack for any occasion – whether for yourself or to share with family and friends.
