These cookies are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few egg whites left over after I make a cake or something, and I'm always looking for ways to use them up. These cookies are a great solution!

I had a hard time getting these cookies to turn out right. I followed the recipe exactly, but the cookies turned out too dry. I think I might have overmixed the dough. I'll try making them again and see if I can get them right next time.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if they had less sugar. However, they're still a good cookie, and I would recommend them to anyone who likes sweet cookies.

I'm not a huge fan of tahini, but I actually really enjoyed these cookies. The tahini flavor is subtle, and it's balanced out by the sweetness of the butter and sugar. I'd definitely make these cookies again.

These cookies are a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if they had been a bit more chewy. However, they're still a good cookie, and I would recommend them to anyone who likes crumbly cookies.

These cookies are a great make-ahead snack. I like to make a batch on the weekend and then keep them in the freezer. That way, I always have a sweet treat on hand when I need one.

I love the texture of these cookies. They're crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. They're also not too dense, so they're easy to eat. I could definitely see myself eating a whole batch of these cookies in one sitting!

I was pleasantly surprised by how well the tahini and butter complemented each other in these cookies. I wasn't sure what to expect, but the flavors blended perfectly. I'll definitely be making these cookies again.
