Chewy Date and Dark Chocolate Cookies

These crispy-edged, chewy-centered wonders deliver the ultimate cookie texture and have an extraordinary sweet-savory balance thanks to olive oil and tahini. To get the cookies just right, measure the ingredients by weight, use good-quality bittersweet chocolate (check out our guide to the best dark chocolate) to offset the sweet dates, and mix the tahini very well before measuring. Oh, and flaky salt before baking is a must.
