These are so goooood! I’ve made them twice – I cut back on the sugar (I used brown sugar) because the sweetness of marshmallows. Also the second time I accidentally forgot to add the butter – ha! – and I never would’ve noticed. They were still delish. I baked 20 mins and the center was just a bit jiggly, but they became more firm. I’d say that’s just a preference on how “underbaked” you like your treats to be.

I pulled these out of the oven, let them sit about 30 minutes and dove in with a spoon! It took a lot of willpower to stop eating them. I baked for 20 minutes and they seem pretty soft so I hope they firm up a bit. If not, I’m diving back in with a spoon! I should also add that I used 3/4 cup coconut sugar and they are plenty sweet. I think even 1/2 cup would be fine. So easy and delicious!

I loved these. I made mine in a toaster oven bc summer. That being said I had to lower the cooking temp half way through so they wouldnt burn. It worked. The dough is pretty thick so just be patient w it when spreading it in your pan. I used a 9inch round baking pan which in volume is equivalent to an 8 by 8in square baking pan. I highly highly recommend.

In reply to RA. Omg I'm SO HAPPY you're loving them! Glad those subs worked well, and SUCH a great idea to add in Nutella! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review

Someone call the police because it MUST be a crime for something to taste SO GOOD!!!! WOW!!! 🙂 🙂
I have consumed 3 pieces in 10 minutes. This recipe is simply luscious and divine! I had to make a few minor modifications to the recipe which were the following: raw pecan flour instead of almond flour ; a lot less sugar – I only used 1/3 cup and I included half spoonfuls of nutella (a natural version) in the batter instead of chocolate chunks. The result is amazing—the tahini and chocolate combo are incredible. I would encourage anyone to try this recipe AND try not to devour the pan in 1 sitting!!!

These have been a summer favourite!! Can use whatever chocolate you have on hand. Also, I recommend doubling the recipe as they are a crowd pleaser 😊

In reply to Lauren. Hi, Lauren. So sorry to hear that the bake time wasn't long enough. I definitely recommend testing the center of the pan with a knife/cake tester before removing from the oven. But I can certainly retest these to make sure the bake time is correct. Thanks so much for the feedback.

These are INCREDIBLE!! I have already made them twice. First try were a bit undercooked, where the whole middle was straight up melted/would need a spoon to eat, so I threw back into the oven in the morning and they firmed up a little but were still gooey. Second time around, I baked for about double the suggested time and they turned out perfect! I am sure every oven is different, but that is what worked for me. Pretty sticky getting into the pan so definitely recommend greasing up your rubber spatula to do so!
