These butter cookies are so easy to make. It’s a one-bowl recipe that results in a simple slice-and-bake dough. First, start by creaming butter and sugar. Next, add the egg yolk and stir in both oils and the dry ingredients. Then roll the dough into a log and chill it. Now, simply slice and bake. Cool before serving and enjoy!
To make these Sesame Cookies, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large bowl, mix together 6 tablespoons softened butter and 1 scant cup powdered sugar.
Add 1 egg yolk and mix to combine.
Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and 3 tablespoons sesame seeds and mix until combined.
Add 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons flour and mix until no dry spots remain.
Transfer the dough on a piece of plastic wrap and, leaving a border of about 2 inches, roll into a log. Twist the ends tightly, and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour or freeze for up to 1 month.
Meanwhile, heat the oven to 350 °F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Unwrap the log and cut into 24 (⅓-inch thick) slices. Place the slices 2-inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the edges are starting to turn golden.
Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack, and then store them in an airtight container.
Serve and enjoy!
