Chef's Notes

  • Sesame and chocolate aren't often thought of as going together, but they complement each other very well in this cookie recipe.
    We prefer maple syrup in this recipe, but date syrup can be used; however, the consistency will be different.
  • Alternatively, spelt and oat flour can be used in place of almond flour.
