Time 1h20m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/3 cup sesame seed
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons water
2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups powdered sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Heat 1/2 cup butter and the sesame seed in 2-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown (watch carefully so mixture does not burn); remove from heat. Remove 2 tablespoons sesame seed; drain. Reserve remaining sesame seed mixture for frosting.
  • Mix 2 tablespoons sesame seed, 1/2 cup softened butter, the granulated sugar, egg and water in large bowl. Stir in flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten to about 1/2-inch thickness with bottom of greased glass dipped in sugar.
  • Bake about 10 minutes or until edges are light brown. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Mix remaining ingredients and reserved sesame seed mixture until spreadable. Spread frosting on cookies.
