Salty Sesame Cookies

I have always wanted  to try make some salty cookies for my husband.  He doesn't really like sweet desserts. This is the first time I made salty cookies. This recipes is from a cookie book that I bought from Taiwan. The author is a Japanese dessert chef.

Ingredients

1.     Butter – 50g   (room temperature)

2.    Salt – ¾ teaspoon  (please adjust to your own taste)

**I would cut down to 1/2 teaspoon next time, it's kind of salty with 3/4 teaspoon.

3.    Milk – 2 tablespoon

4.    Black Sesame – 20g

5.    Cake Flour – 100g

Steps:

1.     Preheat oven to 180C (350F)

2.    Mix butter & salt together.  Use whisk to mix them until it’s soft and creamy

3.    Then add milk little at a time, beating well after each addition.

4.    Add the black sesame into the milk, butter & salt mixture.  Use a spatula gently mixes them.

 

5.    Shift cake flour, and add the flour into the sesame mixture. Uses the spatula gently folds them together, until it becomes dough.

6.    Shape the dough into a 6cm wide x 2cm thick square. Put the dough in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.

7.    Take the dough out of fridge and cut them into 5mm thick pieces.

8.     bake them for 15 minutes, or until a little golden brown on the side.

I will make a sweet version of sesame cookies next time ~
