I live in the South, where people refer to these sesame seed cookies as benne wafers. Toasting benne (sesame) seeds develops their flavor and gives these cookies a slightly crunchy texture. Store cooled cookies in an airtight container.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sesame seeds
- 1 ½ cups packed brown sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2
Place sesame seeds on an ungreased baking sheet and toast in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until light brown. Watch closely so that they don't burn.
Step 3
Mix together brown sugar, flour, toasted sesame seeds, melted butter, egg, vanilla, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl until combined.
Step 4
Drop dough by 1/2 teaspoonfuls, 1 1/2 inches apart, onto a lightly greased baking sheet.
Step 5
Bake in batches in the preheated oven for 4 to 6 minutes, until light brown. Let cookies cool briefly before removing from baking sheets to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 6
Repeat Steps 4 and 5 to bake remaining batches.
