View ProfileChef Einat's signature tahini shortbread style cookies are well-known for a reason, and now she's adapted them into a vegan version. Made with coconut oil, the cookies are melt-in-your-mouth tender, a little nutty, and sweet but not too sweet. They make for the perfect indulgence when you need a little something sweet after a meal, or just a mid-afternoon pick me up!
