I can’t help it, I love peanut butter cookies. This is something I’ve never seen before. Here’s a recipe for Flourless Black Sesame Seed Peanut Butter Cookies. I love the rich nutty flavor of black sesame seeds in the sweet chinese dumplings, but this is even better. These peanut butter cookie balls are rolled in black sesame seeds to give extra nutty crisp in each bite. I prefer my peanut butter cookies to be crispier by having them flattended with the fork cross and sprinkles of black sesame seeds on top.
