Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies

October 11, 2018 by Gina +

I have a handful of yummy cookie recipes on hand for when I’m craving a treat at night.  I love these tahini cookies because they aren’t too sweet but definitely treat the sweet tooth right.  The tahini adds a nice density and nutty flavor too.  They are gluten free, refined sugar free, and minimal ingredients.  Though they take a bit longer than your average 9-12 minutes cookies, the low hear and longer baking keeps them soft on the inside.

Summer gatherings call for dinners that basically Summer gatherings call for dinners that basically make themselves. 
These Sweet & Savory Korean BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwiches are made right in my 10-quart Autuku slow cooker, which means plenty of room to feed a crowd without spending all day in the kitchen.
The simple WARM/LOW/HIGH settings make it easy to set it and forget it, and the PFOA-free ceramic pot is removable, so you can bring it right to the table when it’s time to serve.
Pile the saucy pulled chicken onto toasted brioche buns with creamy sesame pickle slaw and extra pickles. Save this one for your next summer gathering!
