Chinese Sesame Cookies Recipe #75347
These are very interesting cookies. This recipe was given to me from a friend, and ..unfortunately I dont know how many it makes because Ive never made them personally. I know it makes quite a few cookies, but Im really not sure and I havent been able to find out. Please ignore yield. If I figure out how many it makes i will let you know. If you figure it out, please...let me know so I can make the changes.. or you can even make the changes. Ive tried them before, however.. and they are delicious ;-) Prep time doesnt include the 6-8 hours chilling time.
