Before getting started, you’ll need to gather the necessary ingredients for this tahini and chocolate marble cookies recipe. You’ll need 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 3⁄4 teaspoon baking soda, 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1⁄8 teaspoon salt, 1⁄4 cup of tahini, 1⁄2 cup of packed brown sugar, 1 large egg lightly beaten, 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 4 ounces of chocolate chips. Now that you have everything ready to go, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the chocolate chips and tahini. In another bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon and salt. Mix together until well blended. Add the brown sugar to the wet ingredients in the first bowl and stir until completely combined. Finally, add the egg, vegetable oil and vanilla extract to the mixture . Stir until everything is fully incorporated into a thick dough.
In a bowl add the tahini and 3⁄4 cup of the remaining wet ingredients (brown sugar, egg, vegetable oil, vanilla extract), and stir until you have a thick paste-like dough. Once mixed together, set aside. This is your tahini cookie dough.
In a separate bowl, mix the remaining wet ingredients and dry ingredients until you have a smooth, lump-free cookie dough lightly colored with cocoa; this is your chocolate cookie dough.
Grab two separate bowls to create your marbled effect. Scoop half of the tahini cookie dough into one bowl and then scoop half of the chocolate cookie dough on top. With a fork or rubber spatula, swirl both doughs together gently until they are evenly distributed and there are no large streaks of white or brown in the mixture.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop any size cookie dough balls you want (but push down the center and flatten slightly), then place on the baking sheets at least 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes and let cool completely on wire racks before transferring to an airtight container or plate.
Enjoy your tahini and chocolate marble cookies!
