Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 180 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 115 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar, packed
- 120 grams Tahini (sesame paste)
- 1 piece Egg, large
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds, for topping
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, using a handheld or stand mixer, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the tahini, egg, and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, spoon out portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently flatten the cookie dough balls with the back of a spoon or your palm.
Sprinkle the tops of the cookies with sesame seeds for added crunch and aesthetic appeal.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden but the centers remain soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
