Ingredients

• 0.5 Cups butter, melted
• 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.75 Cups confectioners' sugar
• 1 Whole egg, whisked
• 1.25 Cups all-purpose flour, sifted
• 0.5 Teaspoon baking powder, sifted
• 0.25 Teaspoon salt
• 0.75 Cups sesame seeds, toasted

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Spread sesame seeds in a pie pan and toast in the oven for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned.
2. In a mixing bowl, cream the melted butter with vanilla extract until light and fluffy. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, beating until fluffy. Add the whisked egg and beat thoroughly.
3. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add this mixture in thirds to the creamed mixture, stirring in the toasted sesame seeds after each addition. Mix until well blended. Cover and chill the dough for at least 2 hours.
4. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1/3 of the dough at a time to 1/8 inch thick. Use a 2-inch scalloped cutter to cut the dough into shapes. Transfer cookies to ungreased cookie sheets.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.
