½ cup unsalted butter, melted
¾ cup dark brown sugar
1 egg
¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup plus 2 tablespoons flour
¼ teaspoon kosher salt

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Line 9x13-inch baking sheets with parchment paper. Brush paper with melted butter. Toast sesame seeds in a large skillet over medium heat until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Transfer seeds to a large plate; let cool. Whisk flour and baking soda in a small bowl to mix well. Combine brown sugar, butter, lemon juice, vanilla and salt in a large mixer bowl. Beat until light and fluffy. Beat in egg. Add flour mixture; mix well. Stir in sesame seeds. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes to firm slightly. Drop dough by 1 teaspoonfuls onto the parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Bake for about 15 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool on baking sheets on wire racks 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to racks; cool completely. For Ganache Glaze: Place chocolate chips and cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at half power until chocolate chips are melted, stirring every 15 seconds. Let cool 5 minutes. Add butter; whisk until blended. Let the ganache cool 8 to 10 minutes until no longer runny, then use at once to decorate cookies. To decorate cookies, spoon glaze into a food-safe plastic bag or disposable piping bag. Cut a very small hole at a corner or the tip and pipe the ganache onto the cookies. Cook’s Tip Always cool the baking sheets before baking more cookies. A hot baking sheet will melt the dough and cookie edges may burn or cookies can lose their shape. Cookies can be made ahead and frozen. Defrost and decorate before serving.
