White Sesame Coated Cookies


While searching for Asian cooking ideas to gift to my husband's family, I came across sesame cookies multiple times. I noticed that the original recipe called for lard, but many variations now use oil. Personally, I find these cookies to be somewhat lacking in flavor, but taste preferences vary. I believe using butter instead of oil could make them richer in flavor.

Ingredients:

- 2 eggs
- 230g low-gluten flour
- 60g fine sugar
- 60g oil
- 4g baking powder
- Sesame seeds (for coating)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:
   - In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, fine sugar, salt, and oil. Stir until the sugar has melted.
   - Sift in the baking powder and low-gluten flour. Mix until a dough forms.
   - Place the dough in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to chill.
2. Shape and Coat: 
   - Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius (340 degrees Fahrenheit).
   - Divide the chilled dough into 15-20g portions. Roll each portion into a ball.
   - Roll each dough ball in sesame seeds to coat the surface evenly.
3. Baking:
   - Place the coated dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each one.
   - Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
   - Remove from the oven and let the sesame seed cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
