Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 75 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 130 grams All-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 40 grams Sesame seeds
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using a handheld mixer or whisk.
Step 3
Mix in the vanilla extract until well incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the butter-sugar mixture and stir until a soft, cohesive dough forms.
Step 5
Fold in the sesame seeds evenly throughout the dough using a spatula or your hands.
Step 6
Divide the dough into 16 equal portions and roll each into a small ball, roughly the size of a walnut.
Step 7
Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently flatten each ball with the back of a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on top.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve your sesame fork cookies with tea or coffee, and enjoy!
