Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

3 eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
¾ cup vegetable oil
2 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
½ cup orange juice
5 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup fruit preserves, any flavor

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until lightly and fluffy. Stir in the oil, vanilla and orange juice. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the batter to form a stiff dough. If dough is not stiff enough to roll out, stir in more flour. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough out to 1/4 inch in thickness. Cut into circles using a cookie cutter or the rim or a drinking glass. Place cookies 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of preserves into the center of each one. Pinch the edges to form three corners.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool for 1 minute on the cookie sheet before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

HAMANTASCHEN (BEST EVER!)

Hamantaschen (Best Ever!) image

A friend gave me this recipe for hamentaschen, the traditional pastry of the Jewish holiday of Purim. The filling is more likely to please an adult than a child. To use up all the filling takes somewhere between one and two batches of dough. These freeze well. I'm totally guessing on the time it takes to make them. They aren't quick, but worth the effort!

Time 2h15m

Yield 2 batches, 72 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

20 ounces pitted prunes (2 packages)
12 ounces dried apricots (2 packages)
6 ounces dried peaches (1 package)
10 ounces raisins (1 package)
1 orange (thin skinned or peeled)
1 apple
6 ounces apricot jam (1/2 a small jar or to taste)
1 dash lemon juice
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 cup oil
1/2 lemon, juice and zest of
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 -5 cups flour (sifted)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 pinch baking soda

Steps:

For the filling, simply chop all the ingredients fine in your food processor and mix well.
For the dough, cream sugar and eggs.
Add oil and mix until it turns pale yellow and is no longer shiny.
Mix in lemon and vanilla.
In another bowl combine flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
Slowly add dry ingredients to wet. When it becomes difficult to mix, add more flour and knead.
Preheat oven to 375°F.
To assemble cookies, roll out dough (in batches) to desired thickness (maybe a little thinner than 1/4") and cut into circles of desired size (can use cookie cutter, inverted glass, etc). Put a dollop of filling in the center of each cookie and fold up into a triangular shape, pinching the corners and leaving the center open so that the filling peeks out.
Bake cookies for about 15 minutes until they are beginning to brown. I've always greased the cookie sheet very lightly with non-stick spray, but I don't know that you need to.

Tips:

Use a food processor or stand mixer to make the dough quickly and easily.
If the dough is too sticky, add more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it is easy to handle.
If the dough is too dry, add one tablespoon of water at a time, until it comes together.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will make it easier to work with.
Use a cookie cutter or a sharp knife to cut out the hamantaschen shapes.
Place the hamantaschen on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the hamantaschen for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Let the hamantaschen cool for a few minutes before filling them.
Fill the hamantaschen with your favorite fillings, such as lekvar, poppy seed filling, or chocolate ganache.
Serve the hamantaschen warm or at room temperature.

Conclusion:

Hamantaschen are a delicious and festive treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for Purim celebrations, or for any other occasion. With these simple tips, you can make perfect hamantaschen every time.
