In a medium bowl, mix the melted butter, sugar, and honey until only about 50–60% of the sugar granules have dissolved.
Add the eggs in 2–3 additions, mixing after each, then add the vanilla extract.
Sift together the all-purpose flour, ground black sesame, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt.
Add the sifted dry ingredients to the dough and mix with the spatula held upright, cutting through the dough. Once no dry flour is visible, add the whole black sesame seeds and chopped peanuts and mix.
Rest the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Divide the rested dough into 180–200g portions.
Lower the preheated 200℃ oven to 185℃ and bake for 10–13 minutes.
Sprinkle the topping sesame seeds over the baked cookies.
