Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Cream butter, tahini, brown sugar, and white sugar together with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Pour in egg and almond extract, mix to combine.

  3. Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Mix into butter mixture until just combined.

  4. Pour sesame seeds into a shallow bowl. Roll dough into walnut-sized balls. Roll balls in sesame seeds to lightly coat. Place on 2 ungreased cookie sheets, drizzle with honey.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Recipe Yield

34 small cookies

Recipe Note

This cookie recipe is adapted from my go-to peanut butter cookie recipe. I think I like it better sesame style with tahini!
