  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

For the Chocolate Tahini Fudge

ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups tahini, well-stirred
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cacao powder
  • 2 tablespoons almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon flaked sea salt, optional

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350ยบF. Line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

  • Step 2

    To make the crust: Whisk flour, sugar and salt in a bowl. Set aside. Melt butter in a clear heavy-bottomed pot. Once the butter starts to foam, whisk continuously until brown bits start to form. Remove from heat and pour directly onto the flour and sugar mixture. Stir until well combined. Press evenly into prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.

  • Step 3

    To make the filling: Melt butter in a pot. Once melted, add in tahini, sugar and extract. Stir well to combine. Remove from heat and stir in cacao powder and almond flour until well combined. Pour into pan, on top of the crust. Place in the freezer to chill for at least 2-3 hours. Slice into squares, top with salt and enjoy straight from the freezer.
