All of this sesame and chocolate chip cookies are so easy to make, you'll love them! A little twist compared to the classic version thanks to the addition of tahini (sesame puree).

How can you resist a batch of cookies? The answer is simple: it is impossible. I love it when they're all still hot, right out of the oven ...

How to prepare these sesame chocolate chip cookies?

For this recipe, I used sesame puree (tahini or tahini). It helps bring a discreet sesame / hazelnut flavor - but really delicious. Usually tahini, I use it mainly in sauce to accompany raw vegetables. The tahini is packed with antioxidants and minerals, it really is one of the superfoods to have in the kitchen!

I also added some full-bodied dark chocolate chips (well, “chunks” would be more appropriate!). I love finding big chunks when eating cookies, do you? For the full-bodied side, opt for a minimum of 65% cocoa, otherwise I find that the taste is not strong enough.

For the sugar, I used a mixture of blond sugar and whole sugar. The blond sugar brings the crunchy side, the whole sugar brings the soft side. You can of course adjust the dose to your liking.

Tips for making these cookies successful

Due to the use of sesame puree (tahini) in addition to butter, the dough requires refrigeration. Without refrigeration, the cookies would spread out too much during baking.

I also advise you not to overload your hob too much: these sesame and chocolate chip cookies take up space while cooking! To avoid them sticking together then you know what you have to do :)

If you are a fan of cookies, then I also recommend this recipe from Granola cookies or this recipe from rustic cookies caramelized decan nuts dark chocolate.

    Recipe tested several times and always a success!

    I last time reduced it in butter and replaced it with a little grapeseed oil, and I also put a little less sugar, and it's still just as good.
