Instructions

  1. Preaheat oven to 350 degrees.

  2. Place graham crackers side by side in ungreased jelly roll pan,(Make sure to use pan size called for; Crackers should cover entire pan with NO spaces in between) I lined the pan with release foil, this way the graham crackers fit really good in the pan.

  3. In a 1-quart saucepan, combine butter and sugar; heat to boiling over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, Boil 2 minutes or until mixture thickens slightly.

  4. Spread mixture evenly over graham crackers; sprinkle with almonds and sesame seeds.

  5. Bake 18 to 19 minutes or until graham crackers are slightly brown and butter bubbles and turns golden; WATCH CAREFULLY during the last 2 to 3 minutes of baking to make sure graham crackers do not over brown.

  6. Note: my cookies were done in 16 minutes.

  7. While cookies are still in pan, with knife, IMMEDIATLY cut each graham cracker crosswise in half.

  8. With metal spatula, transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool.

  9. Store cookies in tightly covered container, with wax paper between layers,in refrigerator up to 1 month or freeze up to 3 months.
