- Preheat oven to 340°F (170°C).
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 large egg, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in 1 cup sesame seeds.
- Drop rounded teaspoons of dough onto a greased baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.

- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few seconds before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
