So I’ve been making these amazing cookies since I found your recipe back in 2019! I made them for every party I could think of because they are so simple and delicious! I ended up finding out I had an egg allergy in 2022 and I literally started dreaming about these cookies and how I could make them vegan/egg free and I wasn’t sure it was possible, but I finally tried it out today and it worked perfectly!

I made 2 chia eggs (ground chia and water) to substitute for the eggs and then I added 1 tablespoon of arrowroot powder. I had run out of coconut sugar when I made it so I mixed cane sugar and maple syrup to mimic coconut sugar and it is perfection! Mine took about 15 minutes in the oven to get that perfect browning but they taste just like the original I used to make!

So excited to bring these to my friends and have them try them out and now I can share with even more friends that are vegan 😉
Love your recipes!’

Mine weren’t pretty, but so delicious and easy to make. Next time, I think I will chill the dough before measuring it out. I also won’t flatten it as much. I will be making these again!

What would you recommend as a substitute for coconut sugar? Would brown sugar work?

Hi Janine, I’m not sure why that’s happening – it’s working fine for me… would you mind emailing me a screenshot so that I can pass this along to my web team? My email is: myheartbeetsblog@gmail.com – thank you!

When I click print on any of these recipes, strange code appears. Can you fix??

In reply to Bonnie. Now I realize why mine were kinda ugly looking. The second batch turned out just right because the sugar finished dissolving while it sat. They also spread out more flat because the mixture warmed a bit and it went on a hot pan. My tahini (jar says Tahina) was in the fridge because I figured it could go rancid. The cold eggs and tahini combined made a perfect storm. I think I'll still change the way I mix them next time and put the sugar and eggs together first. Still worth making again. My husband won't stop eating them, so I'm glad they are small! And as noted before, it makes a lot of little cookies. I managed to get 21!

I finally made this tonight after having thus bookmarked for a while. I cut back the sugar by about 2 tbsp because I always find baked goods too sweet. With 70% dark chocolate squares cut into chunks, it worked out nicely. Mine aren’t as photogenic, but it was nice to have a very simple and quick recipe to satisfy a hankering late in the evening. I have to admit I have never had tahini on its own and the closest I’ve come to eating that much sesame is those sesame snaps I used to get at the corner store once in a while as a kid. I’m still adjusting to the dominant sesame flavour, but the gooey-fresh-from-the-oven cookies we sampled were lovely.

Thanks again for another keeper!
