Is the tahini a noticeable taste?
I could not taste the tahini when I made these!
I have a sesame allergy, do you have any suggestions for a substitution for tahini? thank you so much they look awesome
I feel like cashew butter is your best bet in terms of not adding much flavor! Followed by almond
These cookies were THE BEST!! So easy throw together when that midnight sweet tooth craving hits 🙂 I also topped with peanut butter and that was just the icing on the cake!

These are SO GOOD! I used 1 tbsp of honey rather than the maple syrup and they taste amazing. Thank you!
These are so good!! A great sweet treat that doesn’t hurt my stomach like regular cookies do. The little pinch of salt at the end is a gamechanger! I subbed almond butter for tahini and I think they came out a bit thicker than they would have with the original recipe. Still soft, but I balled the dough and they didn’t really flatten down to look like cookies- more like energy balls. Still eating my way through the batch at an alarming speed!
Can you substitute raisins for the chocolate? My father and I cannot have chocolate.
