Benne wafers recipe, also known as sesame seed cookies.
Ingredients:
* 1 cup sesame seeds
* 3/4 cup butter, melted
* 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
* 1 egg
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Preparation:
Place the sesame seeds on an ungreased baking sheet and toast for about 10 minutes, watching closely, until lightly browned. In a large mixing bowl mix the brown sugar, melted butter or margarine, egg, vanilla extract, flour, salt, baking powder and toasted sesame seeds together until blended. Drop dough by half-teaspoonfuls onto a lightly greased baking sheet, leaving about 1 1/2 inches between cookies. Bake benne wafers in preheated 375° oven for 4 to 6 minutes, or until lightly browned. Let cookies cool for about 2 minutes on baking sheets; remove from baking sheets to a wire rack to cool completely. Store cooled sesame seed cookies in an airtight container.

Of course, Martha Stewart has her own version of these cookies. And, the recipe is quite different requiring you to roll out a dough instead of dropping spoon-fulls as the recipe above.

I wonder which one I should try?
