Crumbled Mess Tahini Cookies

• 
  
  
  
  

STUFF

1 cup tahini (firm, natural variety, such as Artisana)

¾-1 cup melted 片糖 AKA Chinese brown slab candy (estimate it)

¼ cup water

1 cup whole grain pastry flour 

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon egg replacer or 1 tablespoons flax meal

¼ teaspoon sea salt 

ACTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Smoosh the tahini into a large-ish bowl. Melt the sugar in the microwave with the water for about one minute. Stir and mash until soft. Add to the tahini. Add the dry items. Stir to combine and finish with your hands by kneading. 

Now you can attempt to roll the dough into balls, whatever size you like. I like about 1-2 tablespoons per ball. If you are unable to roll into balls due to everything being too dry, don’t worry about it. Plop dough in crumbled chucks on your prepared sheet. Bake 10-13 minutes until “done.”

Cool on the sheet. Eat with a tiny ice cream spoon. Really.
