  Cream butter with sugar in an electric mixer, adding
  sugar slowly. Beat 20 minutes or until the consistency
  of whipped cream. Add vanilla, then eggs one at a
  time.  Beat well after each addition. Take from mixer.
  With a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, fold in 4 cups
  of flour sifted together with baking powder. Knead in
  remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until a soft
  non-sticky dough is achieved.  If large eggs are used,
  a little more flour may be needed.  Pinch off dough
  the size of a walnut and roll pencil thin, fold in
  half side by side and twist. Brush with beaten egg
  yolk and press sesame seeds on each piece. Place on
  cookie sheets and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes
  or until golden brown.
  
  Makes 50 to 60 cookies.
