In a medium mixing bowl, add the flour, yeast, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. This can also be done in a stand mixer so add the ingredients to the bowl of your stand mixer if you prefer. Mix everything briefly to combine the dry ingredients.

Add in the butter or ghee to the flour mixture. Mix together with the dry ingredients.

Add the water slowly until it comes together into a light pliable dough.

Cover and rest the kahk dough in a cool place for an hour. This dough has a short prep time.

In a small pan, melt the butter or ghee and heat to a low heat.

Add the flour and cook it on medium/low until the mixture turns slightly golden. Remove this mixture from the heat.

Add the honey and the sesame seeds and cook the mixture until it thickens a little.

Remove from the heat and add the pistachios; mix to combine.

Allow the honey filling to cool for 10 minutes or so. Set aside in a small bowl.

Divide the cookies into 20 dough balls and the filling into 20 balls. Ensure you have rolled a smooth ball each time.

Take the cookie dough ball and flatten it out.

Place the filling ball inside the dough ball and wrap the dough around the filling.

Repeat this with all 20 cookies.

Press the cookie down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for about 25 minutes of until golden brown. Cool completely on a wire rack. Give them 5 minutes on the baking sheet before moving them.

Cool and then dust with powdered sugar.
