How to Make Sesame Bon Bon Cookies
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon almond extract. Beat well to combine.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or overnight for best results).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in sesame seeds to coat completely.
- Gently press a blanched almond into the center of each cookie ball.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Do not overbake; they will continue to cook slightly as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing.
