Make the cream cheese filling that goes inside the cookies.
Melt the butter completely.
In a medium bowl, mix the melted butter, sugars, 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 chopped peanuts and mix.
Rest the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Divide the rested dough into 150g portions and flatten each one, then put 30g of cream cheese filling in the center and wrap the dough around it.
Lower the preheated 200℃ oven to 185℃ and bake for 10–13 minutes.
