Difficulty 2/5

Ingredients

½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature

½ cup granulated sugar

½ cup tahini

1 egg

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

¼ cup finely chopped Gimme Sushi Nori

1 teaspoon baking powder

Sweet Furikake Topping

3 tablespoons white sesame seeds

3 tablespoons finely chopped Gimme Sushi Nori

¼ cup tablespoons extra coarse sugar crystals

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Combine toppings ingredients and set aside. Get a small dish of water and set aside.
In a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar 1-2 minutes until pale and creamy.
Beat in the tahini and egg until smooth.
Add flour, Gimme, and baking powder then stir until just combined. (Depending on your tahini your dough can vary in consistency, if too wet add 1-2 tablespoons flour and if too dry, add 1-2 tablespoons water.)
Scoop up a heaping tablespoon of dough, roll into a ball, roll in water, roll in toppings, then place on prepared baking sheet about 2” apart. Repeat to make about 24 cookie balls.
Before baking, gently smash dough balls then bake for 13-15 minutes until slightly dry around the edges.
Let cool on baking sheets then enjoy!
