Title: SESAME COOKIES
Categories: Cookies
Yield: 50 servings
3/4 c Toasted sesame seeds
2 1/4 c All-purpose flour, sifted
1 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Baking soda
1 1/2 c Vegetable Shortening
1 c Sugar
2 Eggs
1 ts Vanilla extract
1 Egg yolk
Mix the egg yolk with 1 teaspoon of water.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 cookie sheets with
parchment paper. Prepare sesame seeds. Reserve 1/4 cup
to garnish cookies, coarsely grind remaining seeds.
Combine ground sesame seeds, sifted flour, baking
powder and baking soda in a bowl.
In a mixing bowl, cream shortening and sugar until
fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and beat until smooth
after each addition. Add vanilla and stir to combine.
Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture a little at a
time and mix until well combined. Dough will be moist
and pull away from sides of the bowl. Dust a work
surface with about 1/4 cup flour. Knead the dough to
form a smooth ball. To shape each cookie, roll 1
tablespoon of dough into a ball. Press lightly with
palm of your hand on cookie sheet. Place cookies 3
inches apart on cookie sheets; freeze for 20 minutes.
Brush cookies with egg wash. Press reserved sesame
seeds into dough. Bake for 15 - 20 minutes or until
lightly browned. Remove and allow to cool. Store in
airtight cookie tin for up to 2 weeks. Makes 50
cookies. From The Gazette, 91/02/13.
