Barazek
Recipe type: Dessert
Barazek is an Iranian food recipe of a popular middle east cookie from sesame seeds.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sesame seeds
- 2 tbsp honey
- ¾ cup sugar
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2½ cup flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- pinch of salt
- ½ to ¾ cup water or milk
- 2 tbsp pistachios, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly grease two baking sheets.
- Place sesame seeds in a skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring often, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer seeds to a medium mixing bowl and combine with honey. Mix well, adding a tbsp. or so of water if the mixture is too dry and sticky to stir easily, and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream sugar and butter together. Add flour, baking powder, and salt. Using your hands, blend well, adding enough water or milk to make a soft, smooth dough.
- Form dough into walnut-sized balls. Dip one side of a ball into pistachios. Place on a greased baking sheet, pistachio-side down. Use the flat bottom of a water glass dipped in flour to flatten the ball. Sprinkle with sesame seed mixture, pressing with glass so seeds stick firmly. Repeat with remaining dough and sesame seeds.
- Bake 15 to 20 minutes.
