  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter, almonds, sugar, honey, almond, egg, cinnamon and nutmeg. Gradually add in the flour to form a dough (knead with clean hands if necessary—it can be sticky). Refrigerate dough for about 10 minutes, or until it is slightly firm.

    Pour seeds into a small bowl. Pinch off a walnut sized ball of dough and roll it in the sesame seeds to coat. Then, take the ball and roll it between your palms into about 2 in long pieces, tapering the ends.

  3. 3

    Place side by side on a cookie sheet, curving them into crescent shapes. Bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown, being careful not to burn.
