Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a bowl, cream 1/2 cup softened butter and 1/2 cup sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Step 2
Beat in 1 egg until combined. Stir in 1 cup flour and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder until a soft dough forms.
Step 3
Place 1/2 cup sesame seeds on a plate. Roll dough into 1-inch balls, then roll each ball in sesame seeds to coat.
Step 4
Place balls 2 inches apart on a baking sheet. Flatten slightly with your palm. Bake until edges are golden, about 12 minutes.
Step 5
Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Cookies will crisp as they cool.
