Now that I have a pot a tahini to use up, I took the opportunity to make some tahini and date cookies by Benjamina Ebuehi that had been on my to-do list for a while...

They were good, with a nice chew and a pleasant halva flavour. Simple to make and vegan, too, if that's your thing.

 

A couple of adjustments for larger, thinner cookies...

But overall I preferred the thicker ones.

They sound excellent.  I, too, end up with tahini to use up fairly often and I'd love to try these!  Is this the recipe?  And does that recipe result in the thicker cookies that you preferred? (Love  Benjamina!)  When I'm looking to use up tahini, I sometimes make these tahini and almond cookies from David Lebovitz that were recommended to me years ago by @Darienne.
