Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 180 grams all-purpose flour
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 50 grams white sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer or whisk.
Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and toasted sesame oil until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Fold in the white sesame seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion out the dough into small balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Press down each ball slightly with the palm of your hand to create a flat disc shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your buttery, nutty Golden Sesame Cookies!
