Hey im a student and I ran out of Money. I have nearly nothing left to eat. some sesame seeds a little honey and some white sugar was there. somehow I Landed here. this worked so good and tastes nice. gonna make that again :D
sarah197730 Let us know if she does - I know I've loved these since I was a kid. So i'm sure there's plenty of people for whom they will evoke/hold strong memories.
I use to help my friend make peanut brittle not so long ago... adding Baking soda is amazzing.. makes it Crisp , not crunchy.. light and airy.. so divine... we made THOUSANDS... people couldn't get enough of them... zin this little batch I would imagine 1 tsp would be plenty... mix in just before turning out onto the paper... it will triple in size fast.. so be sure to stir fast 😉👌 you won't regret it.
Didina Ben Oh thank you. That's really lovely to know. We certainly have fun making the videos - so it's really heartening to hear you enjoy watching them too. We love to spread a bit of joy! : )
Made these today and they are delicious. Just one little problem! Didn't grease the paper enough so they were stuck to it. I put on my kettle to boil and steamed the paper off. I guess I learned my lesson for next time....hahaha!
Smokeythelovable Good effort with the kettle!! I'd probably have just eaten the paper too! hahahaha. Glad you enjoyed them, and really glad you made them and told me. Means the world to us to have our recipes recreated elsewhere : )
I just tried this and it's pretty good, only thing is that they're not solid enough, they're still kind of soft and pliable at slow movements. How can I fix this for next time?? Thanks!
I love Sydney cam (thanks Minion)! Grand little concoction Sacha; you're not bad at this cooking lark... Seriously though, they look delicious. I absolutely love sesame seeds.
0003Zeb Glad to hear. I need to reclean my oven (batter incident!!!) then we can restart some of our other funky trademark shots : ) Minion sends love too (as does Syd!)
Hi Sacha,I have come across your recipe for SESAME SNAPS, I am hoping that as your recipe uses much less sugar and no glucose/corn syrup which the bought ones do have in, so I have used a Brown Granulated Sugar rather than soft brown as I had some left over, I have toasted mine slightly first, so am hoping it will be fine, and I used just a Spatula to flatten mine out, I also plan to use Gluten Free Chocolate on half of mine.The mixture is cooling as I type this, so I shall let you know.Thank you.
+Alison Stevens All sounds good to me - so sorry for slow response, we're normally far quicker - just been a struggle without internet (nothing's been connected yet at the new place!) Hope the snaps were up to standard : )
Hi, The sesame snaps turned out really great, but I shall have to flatten it much more, as I did not get the SNAP..haha I got more of a chewy bar, but wonderful taste all the same. Thank you
Emilie Højbjerre-Frandsen Emilie, I'm a food addict... I literally eat every day - hahaha. No all joking aside, I get recipes from friends, family (my dad use to be a baker), old cookbooks, I create recipes when I can too, and since I've started this channel I've learned lots too - by no means an expert... (Remember - you only see the stuff that goes well. I've had a few disasters that I haven't published too!)
Thanks for sharing. I like différents ideas. I wouldn't disagree with your method of preparing it. It might have been a lot more quicker if you had brown the sugar before adding in the sesame seeds. Mostly to avoid over cooking the nutrients from the seeds. I might be wrong lol Please take no offence🌹
Wow so quick and easy, I love sesame seed snaps to. I always make chocolates at Christmas, but I think I will also be making these, what do you think they will taste like with a corner dipped in chocolate??? Thanks for another great video, loves and hugz xxxx
Jennifer time Thanks Jennifer. Glad you're still enjoying them. Lots planned for Christmas - fear not - almost too many recipes to fit into one season - but we'll try! May start them early (as there's never really a bad time of year to enjoy Mulled Wine! hahaha hiccup!)
Thanks and yes of course.... oh, unless you mean things like my Blueberry Froyo, Chia Energy Bars, chia seed popsicles, oat meal bites...and I haven't even started on all the healthy savouries I've done already... check those out! (we do 'healthy' too, just you - like most - are clearly more drawn to the not-so-healthy! hahaha)
Smokeythelovable So glad to hear. They're a favourite of mine - have been since I was a kid. It was only recently when i found an unopened bag of sesame seeds in the back of my baking cupboard that I thought to make them! Now I have, reckon I'll be making them far more often as a pick-me-up to take to work, or keep in my desk (for those mid-afternoon lulls in energy!)
This is my first time making it. It’s delicious. I waited for more than 30 mins to let it cool down. But after I cut and stack them, they stick together. I can’t separate them. 😭 How can I prevent it next time?
I think you could dust some cocoa powder of powdered sugar over your sesame snap pieces 🤔, you could also cut some small pieces of wax or parchment paper to layer in between each sesame snaps. It wouldn't have to be the same size as the sesame snaps, I feel like smaller sheets of paper would look better and more clean! I think as long as you have paper covering around 50% to 60% of the snaps you should be able to separate the individual sesame smaps without to much effort! My last and personal favorite idea to prevent sticking would be to enrobe the sesame snaps in some tempered chocolate 👍🏻! Using tempered chocolate would help give the chocolate a nice shiny look when cooled, and would also give the chocolate a pleasing little snap when you bite down into it, while also helping to slow down melting while it's being held in your hand 👍🏻! To help balance out the sweetness of the sesame snaps, I would probably use semisweet or dark chocolate 🍫! These were just some of the ideas that popped into my head as I was reading your question! Good luck 😁!
OMG...what a beautiful face on your dog. I gonna go make that recipe now if I can work out how much 100gm is, I'm still in pounds and ounces, I guess google will tell me. Thanks for the recipe, I just love sesame snaps x
I make caramels and my dog loves to watch as he gets the nibbles that are on the ends. :). I'm going to make and add some pecans and almond. Thank you!
itssophiebear I actually haven't tried this. So I don't know. Why not try it, and let me know. It sounds like it would be delicious. If your'e not a fan of honey flavour - which I'm not, if it's overpowering. In these the honey isn't over powering at all. The sesames really take centre stage (if that was a consideration!)
xxGuItArGiRLxx89 Hi there. Put simply no. There'd be nothing to 'solidify' - you'd just have honey with sesame. Even if you effectively boiled it down, honey doesn't solidify. Just gets sticky. So nope. You'd need the crystalised sugar to make it work. Sorry.
Hey im a student and I ran out of Money. I have nearly nothing left to eat. some sesame seeds a little honey and some white sugar was there. somehow I Landed here. this worked so good and tastes nice. gonna make that again :D
Thanks for this short and quick recipe :-)
100g light brown sugar
100g runny honey
200g sesame seeds
Ooh my mum would love these thanks for sharing xx

Very clever and straight forward explanation. Nice job. Thank you.
Me and my mom are planning on making these
Very good
Oh my I love these 😍 so excited to try them 💕
Thanks Sacha I can always find my happiness on ur channel, wish I could give more than one thumbs up 👍👍👍

What is the alternative for parchment paper? I have no one. But I have tracing paper here. LOL Seriously.
Just wondering, since you can caramelise honey, could you do the same with just honey (since it’s sugar anyway) and without a granulated sugar?
I love Sydney cam (thanks Minion)! Grand little concoction Sacha; you're not bad at this cooking lark... Seriously though, they look delicious. I absolutely love sesame seeds.
0003Zeb Glad to hear. I need to reclean my oven (batter incident!!!) then we can restart some of our other funky trademark shots : ) Minion sends love too (as does Syd!)
Gorges dog !!! Love the recepy will try for Xmas this year thank you Ewa
what kind of honey is best for this? manuka? i have acacia honey but i think it might be too sweet for this?
Awesome !!
Great recipe .. I am going to try it soon.
Thanks a lot

Thank you
Made them but kept chocking on the little pieces of twine...

Can we use maple syrup as my son is allergic to honey?
I was wondering, how do you know all these delicious recipes? :))

+Totally Sacha can use sugar cane granulated white sugar instead of the brown

Elaine Howard Mmmmm these dipped in chocolate would be amazing :-) Sx
Even I could make this one! Just loving your videos Sacha and can't wait to see what you come up with for Christmas xxx
Jennifer time Thanks Jennifer. Glad you're still enjoying them. Lots planned for Christmas - fear not - almost too many recipes to fit into one season - but we'll try! May start them early (as there's never really a bad time of year to enjoy Mulled Wine! hahaha hiccup!)
These look amazing, can't wait to try these out. Please could you try some healthy snack videos in the future, would love to see that!! :-) x x

Hulled or unhulled? I’m don’t know ?
I will definitely be making these! Easy and delicious!

Great recipe! I always done it the other way, but now I'm gonna try your way!
This is my first time making it. It’s delicious. I waited for more than 30 mins to let it cool down. But after I cut and stack them, they stick together. I can’t separate them. 😭 How can I prevent it next time?

Ryan Challender thx 😊
My nan used to make these back home ..
Badr-ul- Jamal I'm sure these aren't as good as your nan's. Nan-cooking rocks!
Hey, thanks for the receipt, I made it and it turned out great, I added a tablespoon of molasses also😅🙋🏻♀️
I will 100% be making these! How long do they keep for?x
Lelly Talks In an air-tight container I'd eat them within a week.
OMG...what a beautiful face on your dog. I gonna go make that recipe now if I can work out how much 100gm is, I'm still in pounds and ounces, I guess google will tell me. Thanks for the recipe, I just love sesame snaps x
I make caramels and my dog loves to watch as he gets the nibbles that are on the ends. :). I'm going to make and add some pecans and almond. Thank you!
Just making them again, but mixing flax seeds and Quinoa with my sesame seeds...
Oh, I used to love these as a kid! Could I use maple syrup instead of honey for this? :)

If your'e not a fan of honey flavour - which I'm not, if it's overpowering. In these the honey isn't over powering at all. The sesames really take centre stage (if that was a consideration!)
I'll let you know how I get on! These would make super tasty holiday gifts. May even drizzle some chocolate over them- yum! Great recipe, thanks!
Can I eliminate the sugar? Would they still turn out ok?
xxGuItArGiRLxx89 Hi there. Put simply no. There'd be nothing to 'solidify' - you'd just have honey with sesame. Even if you effectively boiled it down, honey doesn't solidify. Just gets sticky. So nope. You'd need the crystalised sugar to make it work. Sorry.
I thought so. I will make them as a treat. They are very popular in the middle east, because we love extremely sweet desserts.
Yummy! Yummy! Yummy! These look soooo good!!
Cat Foxx They are so easy Cat... something this easy shouldn't be allowed to be this yummy - but they are!
Loved your show a new subscriber nom nom yummm
