Sesame Ginger Cookies

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Sift together flour, ground ginger, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

Beat together brown sugar, tahini and sesame oil at medium speed until well blended. Add corn syrup, vanilla extract and egg. Beat well. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture slowly, beating at low speed until combined.

Form dough into balls, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter (about 20). Roll balls in raw sugar, pressing sugar onto outside surface of the dough. Transfer to a cookie sheet. Using a glass, flatten balls slightly. Bake for 10 minutes. Leave on cookie sheet 2 minutes before transferring to a baking rack to cool completely.
