This short bread recipe uses sesame paste, also known as Tahini, and a minimal amount of white sugar to achieve a crunchy and caramelized texture.

Ingredients

4

125g of butter

from 30g to 70g of sugar

75g of Tahini

1 egg

200g of flour (T45)

3g of baking powder

Any toppings if desired (chocolate chips, …) although it is very enjoyable on its own.

Directions

Thoroughly mix the egg, sugar and Tahini

Warm the butter so it is “pommade” meaning not liquide but soft enough so you can mix it with the preparation

Have a good mixing of the butter and the preparation so it gets a bit airy.

Add the flour slowly so the preparation stays homogenous.

Add the baking powder

Let the dough sit and then cook it as described in butter-based biscuits recipe
