This recipe comes from The Turkuaz Kitchen. "Tahini isn't just for savory dishes. it's a start player in some of Türkiye's sweetest recipes, including these melt-in-your-mouth cookies. You may find their halva-like texture a bit different at first, but trust me, a sip of coffee or tea between bites will let their flavor unfold and soon have you craving more. These cookies are the epitome of a unique taste experience, and despite any initial texture surprises, I am confident you'll love them as much as I do. The key to this recipe is the high-quality tahini-- the right tahini will be very finely ground with a consistency similar to honey. Serve with lots of tea or coffee.
