I've modified the directions to make it easier to handle. The first ball I tried to roll was still almost pudding like in my hands. I definitely couldn't roll those! I put it in the fridge for another half hour to set. Even then, although it was stiffer, it was still sticky. Then I just dropped the ball in the bowl of sesame seeds and shook it to coat it. It worked much better, my hands didn't get coated with chocolate and I was able to transfer to the sheets easily. ingredients: | |
8 ounces | semisweet chocolate |
2 TBSP | butter, (I used vegan butter) |
3 TBSP | Tahini |
2/3 cup | all purpose flour |
1/2 tsp | baking powder |
1/2 tsp | kosher salt |
2 large | eggs |
3/4 cup | packed brown sugar |
1 tsp | vanilla extract |
1/2 to 3/4 cup | sesame seeds, toasted, (I buy jars of toasted sesame seeds, much easier!) |
directions:
In a small saucepan melt chocolate and butter over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth. Remove from heat then stir in tahini. Set aside.
In a small bowl combine flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside. In a large mixing bowl beat eggs until frothy. Add brown sugar and vanilla and beat until well combined and light. Beat in chocolate mixture, then beat in flour mixture just until combined. Cover dough then chill at least 1 hour, until easy to handle.
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Scoop out dough with a cookie scoop, then drop into the bowl of sesame seeds. Roll the dough ball in the bowl to cover complete with sesame seeds. Place on cookie sheets 2 inches apart. Bake for 11-13 minutes, until puffed and set on the bottoms.
Allow to cool mostly on the sheet, then twist slightly to remove from the sheet, so the bottom doesn't stick to the sheet. Transfer cookies to wire rack to cool completely.
Yield: about 2 dozen (I got 26 using my cookie scoop, not the original 42 the recipe stated!)
