Sesame is an ingredient that has become more common lately to use in desserts that don’t usually call for it. The trend is well-deserved: sesame offers a nutty, sweet flavor and satisfying crunchy texture. In these sugar cookies, sesame is added in two ways, in the form of sesame oil and whole seeds. The cookies are made rather large, but they will have a delightful chew in the centers and a wonderful nutty flavor.
