Recipe: Orange tahini cookies

Carolin from CaroKocht created a great cookies recipe with our delicious oranges from Greece, dates from Tunisia and chocolate from Togo! Using dates only as a sweetener, these cookies will have intense orange and tahini notes. Thanks to the oats they’re a great way to start you day, especially when you only have time to grab a quick bite. In the afternoon they go well with a cup of coffee or tea. Enjoy!

Preparation:

  1. Roast the ground cashew nuts in a pan and then leave to cool. Dice the marzipan very finely.
  2. Mix together the marzipan, butter, sugar and cream. Add the flour (1) and stir until the dough is crumbly.
  3. Mix the flour (2) with the roasted, ground cashew nuts. Add salt.
  4. Mix together both mixtures and knead.
  5. Shape into approx. 3 cm thick rolls, firmly pressing everything together. Wrap the rolls in film and place in the fridge overnight.

The 27-year-old is currently studying at the Swiss Hotel Management School of Lucerne (SHL). His passion for cuisine began – as he says – “in the cradle.” That’s because his “Nonna”, his grandmother as well as his mother were keen amateur chefs, and so he started helping out in the kitchen at a young age.
