My cousin, Rosemarie Calabro, has been making these Sesame Seed cookies for about 15 years. They are really good, and every year at Christmas time she makes these cookies. But I added a little more sugar (to make them sweeter) and nutmeg to the cookies. So here goes!!
Sesame Seed Cookies Recipe
Sesame Seed Cookies
2 sticks margarine, softened
¾ cup sugar
3 eggs
3 ¾ cups flour
3 tsp. baking powder
½ cup milk
1 ½ tsp. vanilla
¾ tsp. nutmeg
Sesame seeds
Cream the margarine and sugar; mix well. Add the eggs and mix well.
At this point add only 1 cup of flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder to the creamed margarine mixture. Then you add SOME of the milk (you have ½ cup to work with), vanilla and nutmeg, then you have 2 ¾ cup of flour and 2 teaspoons of baking powder still to add; so add a little of the flour and baking powder until the milk mixture is gone.
Roll the mixture into 1 ½ x 1 ½ logs; then into milk; then into the sesame seeds.
Put parchment lined baking sheets (get 4 sheets ready), put 5 sesame logs across; and 6 sesame logs down on the sheets.
Bake on 375 F. for 10 – 15 minutes or until lightly brown.
