Crunchy Sesame Cookies
Roasted sesame-seed paste and dark sesame oil deliver a deep, nutty flavor. A touch of corn syrup and cornstarch ensure crispness.

This is a great tasting cookie, the sesame taste is strong and fragrant. I made it for the first time a few weeks ago, and had these observations. It was hard to incorporate all the flour into the mixture, so I ended up kneading the dough until all the flour was incorporated. The end result was very hard cookies. I also experimented and flattened some cookies more thinner than some. The thinner cookies were more crispy, and the thicker ones were rock hard. So I found out that the thicker cookies were great when dipped in coffee or tea. The next time I make it again, I will keep in mind the other tips I've read from the other reviewers here.
Followed recipe but way too strong sesame flavor. Disappointed. Will not make this again.
These are the easiest and consistently tastiest cookies I have ever made. With no butter or chilling time required, well they are a breeze! To get a slightly softer cookie, I leave some some of the flour mixture out and bake the full 10 min. Oh, and the dough is dangerously good. mmmm
Perfect cookies--crunchy, chewy, soft, lots of flavor. I took them out of the oven at 9 minutes and was glad I did. Might add a TB of sesame seeds to the batter next time or a handful of sliced almonds, but they are also PERFECT as is. Made 1/2 the recipe by cutting everything exactly by half (using egg substitute since it's hard to halve an egg) with no problems at all. Good for dessert with a Chinese entree as the sesame goes nicely with soy sauce & similar seasonings.
These cookies were delicious. Tasted very similar to peanut butter cookies. I liked the crunchiness and would definitely make again.
We made this recipe to use up leftover tahini. It was pretty good. I don't like peanut butter cookies so these were a nice alternative. I think they'll taste good with jasmine tea.
These cookies are nothing short of fabulous! I'm not really a fan of crunchy cookies but the flavor in these is amazing. These are my staple for cookies now. They are perfect for someone watching fat and cholestral. Absolutely delicious!!
