Tahini: Runny tahini is key. Runny tahini is key. This recipe works best with runny tahini that mix easily with other ingredients. Tahini brands vary widely in consistency, so look for one with a smooth, pourable texture. I like (affiliate links) Soom, Baron, and Seed+Mill.
Butter: Unsalted and softened to room temperature. Allow the butter to sit out on the counter for about 1-2 hours before starting your recipe. The amount of time depends on the weather and how cool you keep your kitchen.
Baking Soda: Baking soda helps the cookies rise.
Salt + Pure Vanilla Extract: Both add flavor.
Butter: Use room temperature butter.
Sugar: A mix of brown sugar and granulated sugar. Brown sugar yields soft chocolate chip cookies, while white sugar helps the cookies spread.
Add-Ins: Pretzel pieces and milk chocolate chips
FAQs
Like soft-baked, gooey circles of happiness. They have crisp edges, soft-baked centers, and warm melty chocolate throughout.
Allow the cookies to cool completely at room temperature. Line an airtight container with wax paper or parchment paper. You can also use a resealable plastic bag. Place the cookies in a single layer in the container or bag. If you need to stack the cookies, place a layer of wax paper or parchment paper between each layer to prevent sticking. Seal the container or bag tightly.
Store the cookies at room temperature in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight for up to 5 days.
If you want to store the cookies for a longer period, you can freeze them. Place the cookies in an airtight container or freezer bag and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months. To thaw frozen cookies, leave them at room temperature for a few hours or overnight.
