Recipe: Sesame cookies

Here’s the easy recipe for sesame cookies

Ingredients required for the cookies:

1 cup of chickpea flour

3/4 cup soft brown sugar

1/4 cup butter

2 tablespoons of crushed sesame seeds

1 tablespoon of whole sesame seeds
 

Preparing sesame cookies:

Mix all the ingredients together and make a dough. Spread some sesame seeds on a plate.

Roll out small balls and press onto the whole sesame seeds.

Place on a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 20 minutes.

These cookies, I bet have the best crunch, and the treacly taste of jaggery and sesame seeds just gives its taste a whole new dimension.
