The Mailbox – it can be the source of good news, bad news and no news.
As a little girl, trips to the mailbox meant I got to ride on my daddy’s shoulders. (& cover his eyes so he couldn’t see!)
These days, the mailbox is usually the source of monotonous info. But sometimes it includes special surprises – like mystery letters or packages. One such surprise came from Mary’s Secret Ingredients.
Mary’s Secret Ingredients curates a new collection of food products each season. I was contacted to review the Spring Box. This package truly made my day! Enclosed in the neat packaging was a collection of sesame treats – including this Chocolate Sesame Tahini.
I knew right away I wanted to bake with it – & came up with these Chocolate Tahini Thumbprint Cookies. When they come out of the oven, poke the centers with a small wooden rolling pin, or a similar tool to make the “thumbprint.” Once cooled, spoon in the Chocolate Tahini.
