Chocolate Chip Blondies

Best Soft and Chewy Easy Chocolate Chip Blondies

Benne or sesame seeds were brought to America by West African slaves. They were commonly used to enhance the flavors of foods or used as a thickening agent. African slaves believed the seeds to be good luck. Benne wafers are a staple dessert for many people in South Carolina and they are often served during Kwanzaa as well. Melt in your mouth, crisp, chewy, nutty and caramelized benne or sesame wafer/cookies are perfect for the holidays. For a more traditional type cookie, leave them plain or make them festive by drizzling them with chocolate sauce. Both ways are equally delicious.
