Description
Rich, fudgy brownies swirled with creamy tahini for a nutty twist on a classic treat. These tahini brownies are gooey, chocolatey, and packed with indulgent flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until glossy and well combined.
- Stir in cocoa powder, flour, and salt just until incorporated. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Dollop tahini on top and swirl with a knife.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, until edges are set and center is just firm. A toothpick should come out with moist crumbs.
- Cool completely in pan. For cleaner slices, refrigerate before cutting.
- Serve and enjoy as-is or with a scoop of ice cream.
Notes
- Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor.
- Don’t overmix the batter to keep brownies tender.
- Warm tahini slightly if it’s too thick to swirl.
- Top with flaky sea salt for extra flavor contrast.
