Preparation / Directions:The original recipe calls for lard which gives the cookies the proper texture and flavor.
Preheat the oven to 350. Lightly grease 2 cookie sheets.
Mix the flours and baking powder; then add the sugar and mix. Add the lard, or Crisco and/or butter and work into flour until it resembles coarse corn meal. Add the eggs and lemon zest, then add milk a little at a time and work until a ball of dough is formed.
Divide into 4 pieces. Roll each piece on floured surface into a rope about 12 inches long and the thickness of your middle finger. Cut the ropes into 2 inch pieces. Dip each piece into the egg wash, roll in sesame seeds to coat on all sides and place 1 inch apart on the cookie sheets. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until nicely browned. Cool on wire racks.
