I love my cookies soft, hearty, and moist. They get extra points if they’re healthy. Even more points when they take less than 15 minutes to make. These life-changing tahini cookies are the answer. I can have my cookie AND eat it too! Recipe contributed by Jenné Claiborne of Sweet Potato Soul, from her e-cookbook, 5 Ingredient Vegan. Photos by Sydney Bensimon.
