Directions Tahini Almond Cherry Cookies
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets, or line with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, tahini, brown sugar, 3/4 cup of turbinado sugar, and almond paste until smooth. Mix in the egg, vanilla and orange juice. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, almond meal, and cinnamon, stir into the batter until well blended. Mix in the cereal and sour cherries.
Drop dough by heaping spoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets. Sprinkle the remaining 3 tablespoons of turbinado sugar over the tops.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden at the edges. Cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheets, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
