Ingredients

  • 120g tahini, well stirred
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 125g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
  • 100g milk chocolate, roughly chopped
  • 120g salted butter, softened
  • 90g golden caster sugar
  • 110g soft light brown sugar
  • 175g plain flour
  • 1 The Best White Golden Yolk free range egg, plus an extra yolk
  • ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 3 tbsp white sesame seeds
  • 3 tbsp black sesame seeds

Method

  1. Step 1

    In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, put the salted butter, tahini, golden caster sugar, soft brown sugar, vanilla bean paste and a small pinch of salt. Whip for about 5-6 mins using electric beaters until whipped and fluffy.
  2. Step 2

    Crack in the egg and egg yolk, then beat for about 2 mins to combine. Sieve over the flour and bicarb, mixing gently until just combined, then mix through both chocolates. Chill the dough in the fridge for at least two hours.
  3. Step 3

    Heat the oven to 190°C/170°C fan/gas 5. Use an ice cream or cookie scoop to scoop out 12 balls of dough- roughly 65g each. Pour the sesame seeds into a shallow bowl and gently mix them. Shape the cookie dough into balls, then roll each cookie in the sesame seeds. Put them onto two large, lined baking trays, spaced well apart as they will spread.
  4. Step 4

    Bake for 13-15 mins until lightly golden, then remove from the oven and give the tray a good tap on the kitchen side. This helps create a crispy, chewy texture. Leave to cool completely on the tray.
