Sesame Lemon Crisps

I make these cookies often to take to this event or that. They are always eaten and always complimented. Ever so easy.

• Ready In: 27 mins
• Serves: 30
• Yields: 5 dozen small cookies

Ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup butter
• 1  cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons lemon rind, grated
• 1  egg, beaten
• 1⁄2 cup toasted sesame seeds
• 1  cup all-purpose flour
• 1⁄4 teaspoon baking powder

Directions

1. Melt the butter and cool a bit.
2. Stir in sugar, lemon rind, egg, sesame seeds, flour and baking powder.
3. Drop from 1/2 t. onto well-greased cookie sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. They will spread while baking.
4. Bake @ 375 degrees for 10 minutes or until goldern brown.
5. Cool for 1 - 2 minutes before removing from cookie sheets. (The cookies are difficult to remove if you wait too long. If you do, just return them to the oven for a minute or two).
