I bought some tahini paste a while back convinced I was going to learn to make hummus from scratch. Four months later I found this in my cupboard and almost couldn’t remember what it was!
I realized I was never going to make hummus from scratch so I searched the Internet for other tahini recipes. I found a really complicated one for hot chocolate from scratch that needed 10 ingredients! I decided that wasn’t for me but it sounded so yummy….
My lightning quick thinking brain cells helped my lazy brain cells devise a way to make tahini hot chocolate without having to go to the work with 10 different ingredients. Tahini is slightly bitter so if you like a dark chocolate flavor it’s perfect, if not just use less tahini. It creates a very rich and yummy drink.
Perfect for the snowstorm we just got here in Colorado and to fortify me for some shoveling!
I never would have thought to add tahini to hot chocolate! And, I love the rich dark chocolate taste… 🙂
It is very rich and comforting. Tahini is high in calories, so it’s a very satisfying treat
Wow, that is an interesting combination, I should try it next time!
