Stir together milk and poppyseeds, followed by all the other ingredients
except the vanilla extract or lemon rinds. Cook in a small pan until thick
(about 5 minutes), Taste and add more sugar if necessary. Add vanilla or
lemon rind when cool.

until 1/4" thick and cut into 3" rounds.
Place a spoonful of the cooled filling in the center of each round and then
draw up three sides to form a triangle and pinch the edges firmly together.
Brush the tops with a little beaten egg. Bake at 350 degrees for 30
minutes. Cool on a cooling rack.
Makes about 24 hamentaschen. Keeps for one week in an airtight container.
