Jack Cookies for Halloween with Black Sesame
I love Halloween, and I'm a big fan of Jack Skellinton from the film "The Nightmare Before Christmas." I felt that the deep color of black sesame was better suited for these cookies, rather than cocoa.
Please take care when placing on the facial features. Even if it's a little crooked, well, Jack's face is a bit crooked, so don't worry about it. But if you're really having a lot of difficulty, just roll the two types of dough together to make black sesame marble cookie! If you don't press the black dough into the face, when baked it'll turn brown instead of black, so be careful. The amount of cookies yielded by this recipe depends on the size of each one.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Sift the cake flour and set aside. Leave the unsalted butter out at room temperature.
- 2
Once the butter has softened, add sugar and mix into a cream.
- 3
Add sifted cake flour to Step 2 and mix, being careful not to over-mix. Once the dough is smooth and no longer lumpy that's enough.
- 4
Wrap it up in a bundle and store in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- 5
Take some of the dough and mix in your desired amount of black sesame paste to create the black-colored dough for the eyes and mouth.
- 6
Preheat your oven (It takes a while for the cookies to shape, so keep an eye on your oven).
- 7
Take the plain dough and cut into circles of whatever thickness you like (in order to make the Jack face, I did it by hand, not using a cookie cutter).
- 8
If you move them, you'll lose the shape, so it's safer to work on a baking sheet. Lay the cookies on the baking sheet.
- 9
Use the black dough to create eyes, a mouth, and nose-holes and stick them on the face.
- 10
Being careful not to smash the face, use wrapping on top of the cookie to get the black dough settled in with the rest of the face.
- 11
Bake in the oven at 300°F/150°C for 30 minutes. Adjust the temperature and cooking time depending on the condition.
- 12
While making them I got pretty tired and fed up with the process, so I used a cookie cutter for the last bits of dough. The black sesame dough is great for spiders!

For drawing outlines and letters it should be on the stiff side, and to spread out over a large area it should be on the loose side.When thinning out the icing, try adding a drop of lemon juice.

Kabocha Cookies with Aromatic Sesame Kabocha Cookies with Aromatic Sesame
I thought kabocha and sesame would go well together, so I tried making this. I only used a little sesame, but it was enough.If you have an aluminium tray in your freezer, place your cookies on that and they will harden more quickly. The photo for step 4 shows it on a tray. You can make different versions using chopped raisins, chocolate, brandy or rum etc.Kabocha tends to rot or turn bad quickly when there are seeds left in, so if you want to store it, it's always a good idea to remove the seeds first, heat for 3 minutes in the microwave, divide into small portions and freeze.

I wanted to make a pumpkin color and pumpkin shaped cookie for a gift. I give it to people in a black box with an orange ribbon with a Halloween mood.The shaping process after wrapping in a cellophane wrap will determine the cookie shape either to look like a pumpkin or not so try to press it well to shape.The pumpkin pattern will disappear while baking if the cuts are too shallow.The cookies will look more shiny if you brush the remaining egg white or beaten egg on the surface of the cookies before baking.
