  1. Whisk cardamom and 1 1/2 cups flour in a medium bowl and set aside. Using an electric mixer, beat sugar and butter in a medium bowl until smooth. Add egg and rose water and beat to blend.

  2. Reduce mixer to low speed; gradually mix in dry ingredients (dough will be stiff). Cover and chill at least 6 hours or overnight.

  3. Preheat oven to 300°. Scoop level tablespoonfuls of dough and, using lightly floured hands, roll into balls. Place on parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about 1 1/2" apart. Using a fork or another utensil that can make a decorative pattern in dough, flatten balls to a 1/4" thickness. (Alternatively, flatten balls and make an indentation in the centers with your thumb.) Sprinkle cookies with poppy seeds.

  4. Bake cookies until firm but still pale, 20- 25 minutes. Transfer to wire racks; let cool.

  5. DO AHEAD: Cookies can be baked 5 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
