INSTRUCTIONS
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. Emily Epstein epsteine@spot.colorado.edu
