      Title: KOULOURAKIA (SPECIAL OCCASION COOKIES)
 Categories: Bakery, Greek, Cookies, Vegetarian
      Yield: 40 Cookies
 
      2 c  All-purpose flour
      1 ts Ground cinnamon
    3/4 c  Vegetable oil
    3/4 c  Superfine sugar
    3/4 ts Baking powder
    1/2 ts Baking soda
    1/4 c  Brandy
      1 c  Sesame seeds
 
  Preheat the oven to 400F.
  
  Combine the flour and cinnamon in a bowl and set aside.
  
  In a medium bowl, beat the oil and sugar with an
  electric mixer until smooth and creamy.  In a cup,
  dissolve the baking powder and baking soda in the
  brandy, then add to the oil mixture.
  
  Gradually add the flour until the dough is soft but
  not sticky.  Turn out onto a lightly floured surface
  and knead until smooth.  Pinch off pieces of dough the
  size of small walnuts and form into desired shapes.
  Sprinkle with sesame seeds and place 1 inch apart on
  greased cookie sheets. Bake for about 15 minutes, or
  until golden brown.
