How to Make Tahini Bliss Chocolate Chip Cookies

1. Cream Butter, Tahini, and Sugar

Start by creaming the butter, tahini, and sugar together in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed for about 5 minutes until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. This step is crucial as it incorporates air into the dough, ensuring your cookies have a delightful texture.

2. Add Egg, Egg Yolk, and Vanilla

Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture. Continue mixing on medium speed for another 5 minutes. This addition helps bind the ingredients together and adds richness to the dough.

3. Sift Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and kosher salt. Sifting helps to evenly distribute the baking agents and salt within the flour, ensuring a consistent rise and flavor throughout your cookies.

4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies, so mix until you no longer see dry flour.

5. Fold in Chocolate Chips

Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks using a rubber spatula. Ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

6. Refrigerate Dough

Cover the dough and refrigerate it for at least 12 hours. This step is essential as it allows the flavors to meld and the dough to firm up, resulting in tender cookies.

7. Preheat Oven

When you're ready to bake, preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
