Black Sesame Cookies with White Chocolate Chips
Soft and chewy black sesame cookies with white chocolate chips. Perfectly nutty, chewy and easy to make for any occasion!
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- 3 tablespoons black sesame seeds finely ground
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup light brown sugar packed
- ¾ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 medium egg
- 1 cup + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- ⅓ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅛ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ cup white chocolate chips
Optional
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set them aside for later.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Give it a quick whisk and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until smooth and fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, beating until the mixture is light and well-combined, about 1 minute.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a dough forms.
- Stir in the dark chocolate chips and ground black sesame seeds, mixing until evenly distributed.
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie (or adjust to your preferred size) and roll into balls. Arrange them evenly on the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space between each cookie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden. The centers will still look soft — that’s perfect!
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
