- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup Nori Kome Furikake (look for a brand that has more nori and less sesame seeds)
- 1 1/2 cup mini yakko arare (You may use any type of arare. However, if you are using arare such as sakura, crush it into smaller pieces.)
- Optional: additional mini yakko arare for cookie garnish
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 325°F.

- In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).

- Add flour mixture in two batches (adding one at a time) and mix until dough starts to come together.
- Make sure to not over mix.
- Mix in furikake and arare until evenly distributed.
- Cover with plastic wrap and chill dough in the refrigerator for approximately 20 minutes.
- Drop dough by rounded teaspoons or portion scoop onto baking sheet and flatten slightly.
Makes approximately 2 dozen cookies (depending on size of cookies).
Optional: Place a single mini yakko arare in the center of each cookie as garnish. Bake for 15 - 18 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool on cookie sheet for about 10 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

Great firm cookie with unique taste!! I divide the dough into thirds, mold each in a large "spam musubi" form to form a
log which is then wrapped in plastic (saran) to chill. Makes for easy slicing. Also chopped up extra nori for color/taste impact. Use of "Hana Rice Crackers" arare imparts orange colored flecks which contrast with the dark nori for a beautiful
cookie.
