INSTRUCTIONS
DOUGH FILLING Combine the dough ingredients to form dough. Grind the filling ingredients together with a food grinder. Roll out the dough and cut circles with a glass. Put a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle, and fold up sides of the dough to form triangular filled cookies. Bake at 400 F until lightly browned. I haven't actually made this recipe, but I've been enjoying the hamentaschen for years. For poppyseed filling, I think I'd just use the solo filling from th can. I've made my own hamentaschen using various jams for filling, with some success. Good luck.
