Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
All-purpose flour 125 grams
Powdered milk 27 grams
Unsweetened cocoa powder 1 tablespoon, heaped
Powdered sugar 125 grams
Egg yolk 1 piece
Butter 60 grams
Grated tempeh (using a cheese grater) 50 grams
Sesame seeds To taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, powdered milk, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar. Mix them thoroughly.

  2. Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Add the egg yolk and softened butter to the dry mixture. Follow by adding the grated tempeh.

  3. Mix the Dough: Using your hands, begin to mix all the ingredients together. It’s normal for the dough to feel crumbly and dry at first. Continue to knead the dough until it becomes smooth and all ingredients are well blended.

  4. Shape the Cookies: Once the dough is well combined and can be handled easily, shape it into small cookies according to your preference.

  5. Prepare for Baking: Place the shaped cookies onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper, ensuring to leave some space between each cookie to allow for expansion during baking.

  6. Add Toppings: Sprinkle sesame seeds generously on top of each cookie for added flavor and texture.

  7. Bake: Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Bake the cookies for approximately 20 to 25 minutes, or until they are firm and slightly golden.

  8. Cool and Store: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack. It’s crucial to let them cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container to prevent any unpleasant odors.
