Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

Karen Mintzias 3 ts Baking powder
1 c Butter 1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
1 c Caster sugar 1/4 ts Ground cloves
1 ts Vanilla essence 1/4 c Milk
3 Eggs 1/2 c Toasted sesame seeds
5 c Plain flour

Makes: 70 Cooking time: 15-20 minutes Oven temperature: 190 C (375 F)

Cream butter and sugar with vanilla essence until light and fluffy.
Beat eggs, reserve 1 tablespoon for glazing and add remainder
gradually to butter mixture, beating well.

Sift dry ingredients twice. Stir into creamed mixture alternately
with milk to form a soft dough. Knead lightly until smooth. If
dough is sticky, chill for 1 hour.

Scatter some sesame seeds lightly on one side of pastry board. Shape
pieces of dough into thick pencil shapes and roll onto the sesame
seeds to coat lightly or according to taste. Double over rolled
dough and twist, or form into rings, figure eights or coils. Place
on greased baking sheets and glaze with reserved egg beaten with a
little milk. Bake in a moderate oven for 15-20 minutes until golden
brown. Cool on a wire rack and store in an airtight container.

Variation: Roll dough in granulated sugar instead of seeds. Glaze
lightly with milk.
