TAHINI CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies image

Tahini, a rich paste made from ground sesame seeds, gives these chewy cookies a distinctive nutty flavor. It also makes the dough extra light and fluffy when you first put it together, so make sure to leave ample time to chill it before baking the cookies.

Time 7h30m

Yield about 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon fine salt
1 3/4 cups lightly packed dark brown sugar
2 1/2 sticks (1 1/4 cups) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup tahini
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
One 11.5-ounce bag semisweet chocolate chunks (about 2 cups)
2 tablespoons white sesame seeds
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat the brown sugar, butter, tahini and granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes (use the paddle attachment if using a stand mixer). Beat in the eggs one at a time, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add the flour mixture and beat until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chunks by hand. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the dough and refrigerate until very firm, at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
  • Position oven racks in the upper and lower third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
  • Stir together the white and black sesame seeds in a small bowl. Scoop a leveled 1/4-cup mound of the cookie dough (an ice cream scoop works well here), then dip the top of the mound into the sesame seeds and transfer to one of the parchment-lined baking sheets. Continue scooping until you have 6 mounds on each baking sheet. Refrigerate the remaining cookie dough.
  • Bake, rotating the baking sheets from front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, about 18 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely. Allow the baking sheets to cool, then line with fresh parchment and repeat the process with the remaining dough.

TAHINI CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH BANANA NICE CREAM



Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Banana Nice Cream image

A coworker who is very dear to me introduced me to two of her favorite things: the nice cream trend (frozen fruit puréed with some other elements to resemble the texture of ice cream) and tahini chocolate chip cookies. My favorite ice cream flavor is peanut butter cookie dough with a chocolate base, so I thought I would transform it to honor her. Since peanut butter is a peanut paste and tahini is a sesame paste, the swap is a no-brainer, and the bananas provide the sweetness that a good chocolate ice cream requires.

Time 5h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup plain 2 percent yogurt or 4 tablespoons room temperature unsalted butter
1 tablespoon tahini
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon light brown sugar or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
Pinch kosher salt
1/3 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
4 medium bananas, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks (about 1 pound)
2 heaping tablespoons cocoa powder, preferably dark
2 to 3 tablespoons tahini
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste

Steps:

  • For the cookie dough: Process the yogurt, tahini and vanilla in a food processor until combined. Add the brown sugar and process until combined, scraping the sides with a rubber spatula as needed.
  • Microwave the flour in a small microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute. Remove and stir well. Microwave for an additional minute or until the temperature reaches 180 degrees F. Sift into a small bowl, then whisk in the salt (see Cook's Note). Add the mixture to the food processor and pulse until just combined, scraping the sides with a rubber spatula as needed, about 6 pulses. Add the chocolate chips and pulse until they are incorporated, about 5 pulses. Transfer to a small bowl.
  • Roll the dough into 1/4 teaspoon cookie dough balls (about 60 dough balls), lightly flouring your hands if the dough is too sticky. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • For the nice cream base: Put the bananas, cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons tahini and salt in a food processor and process until smooth. Taste and add up to 1 tablespoon more tahini and season with more salt if necessary. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the cookie dough balls. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze for at least 5 hours, stirring every 1 hour 30 minutes to distribute the cookie dough evenly.

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.

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.
