1. Preheat oven to 325°F. 2. In a large mixing bowl combine butter and sugar. 3. Add tahini and vanilla. 4. Using a sifter, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves and add to wet ingredients. Combine well. 5. Pour sesame seeds into a small bowl. Make 2 tablespoon balls from dough, about 24 plus some, and roll in sesame seeds. Top each with a raisin. 6. Place cookies about 2 inches from each other on non-greased cookie sheet. 7. Bake for 11-13 minutes. Do NOT over-bake. The cookies need a little moisture to keep from crumbling apart. 8. Leaving the cookies on the baking sheet, cool on baking racks for 5 minutes before handling. Again, to control the crumble factor. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
