Sesame Snaps

Ingredients

1 cup sesame seeds

1/2 cup sugar

1/3 cup corn syrup

Procedure

  1. Toast sesame seeds in a skillet on medium heat for about 5 minutes, until golden brown.
  2. Remove skillet from heat and let it cool.
  3. In a saucepan cook the sugar and the glucose on medium heat for about 15 minutes until the candy thermometer reaches 310°F.
  4. Pour in the sesame seeds into the hot sugar mixture and stir. Be sure to work quickly so that the mixture does not cool down too much.
  5. Quickly transfer to a greased baking sheet or parchment lined baking sheet and quickly spread it out evenly with a greased spatula.
  6. Let it cool completely before breaking into pieces or cutting with a knife.

Notes

  • I found that scoring with a serrated knife then breaking it at the seam worked best.
