Sesame Cookies

Greeks use sesame seeds in baking as well as in cooking. When I was living in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, I had many Syrian friends that would always bring me a Syrian cookie called Barazek, which was a pure sesame cookie; however, that cookie was made with flour. This keto friendly version is only made with pure sesame seeds and is delicious.
