Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute natural peanut butter for tahini.

    While most of what went wrong was user error, it could have been avoided if certain parts of the recipe were more specific. Bake time took longer than recipe suggested and it still ended up sinking in the middle somehow. Taste was good, but recipe execution could have been smoother.

    Unbelievably good. The tahini fudge sauce is so luscious, salty-sweet, beautifully well balanced; the cake is moist as can be and so tender. What a killer recipe.

    I probably did something wrong, but it took double the amount of time in the oven, and I was worried I’d messed it up. It is SO delicious though! I’d definitely make again.
