Welcome, Jerilyn! The tahini in this recipe is used to replace oil and to help bind the ingredients. Without testing substitutes myself first, I would only suggest substituting another nut/seed butter but I know that doesn’t help your case. Perhaps you could try making a half batch or making the cookies smaller?

Hi…I am new to your website and like what I am reading. I have a question…what could I use as a substitute for half of the tahini paste to make these cookies…I am watching my calorie and healthy fat intake and want to make these cookies using 1/2 cup of the tahini paste, not a full cup of it…thank you!

these cookies look wonderful – I have made a version of tahini cookies but with much less tahini so maybe will try this version

mmm I love tahini. Tahini and honey sandwiches are a favorite of mine and I made sort of a cookie version of that once.
Your cookies look fabulous and I've never tried tahini with chocolate so I must give these a go!
