Baked Halva Cookies

I always manage to sneak tahini in somewhere! In Middle Eastern cultures (one of my favourite cuisines along with Italian), a common dessert is known as halva. It’s a dense and fudgy-like dessert made from sesame and sugar and it is oh-so-delicious. This is a cookie version but it is sugar-free! If you don't have pure monk fruit, use a monk fruit erythritol blend (use 1/4 cup). You can also use 3 tbsp of honey or maple syrup.
