Description

Tahini Molasses Brownies are an easy, indulgent twist on classic brownies, featuring a boxed brownie mix swirled with nutty tahini and rich date molasses for a flavorful, Middle Eastern-inspired upgrade that’s fast, fudgy, and deeply satisfying.


Ingredients

  • 1 box brownie mix (18 oz / 510 g)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil (120 ml)
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 3 teaspoons tahini
  • 1 teaspoon date molasses

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8 x 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the brownie mix, eggs, oil, and water until smooth and fully combined.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together the tahini and date molasses until blended.
  4. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  5. Spoon small dollops of the tahini mixture over the batter and swirl gently using a toothpick or skewer.
  6. Bake according to the package instructions (usually 25–30 minutes), or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Let cool in the pan for 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use 1 tablespoon tahini for a more pronounced flavor.
  • Sprinkle sesame seeds on top before baking for texture.
  • Swap date molasses with grape molasses or honey if needed.
  • Use dark chocolate brownie mix for richer flavor.
  • These freeze well for up to 2 months.
