Thanks for posting that one! </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes/page/2#post-40407 Thu, 05 Feb 2009 20:07:30 +0000 mazal77 40407@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>I might want to try the receipe Oomis posted because it doesn't use margarine, but I don't make Hamantashen till right before Purim.</p> <p>Anyway here is the Hamantashen receipe from the Kosher Palette</p> <p>1/2 cup margarine(1 stick)<br /> 1 cup sugar<br /> 1 large egg<br /> 1/3 cup orange juice<br /> 1 teaspoon vanilla extract<br /> 3 cups all-purpose flour<br /> 2 teaspoons baking powder<br /> 1/2 teaspoon salt</p> <p>Preheat oven to 350 degrees<br /> Beat margarine at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy; gradually add sugar, beating well. Add egg, O.J. and vanilla<br /> combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to margarine mixture; stir into a uniform dough.<br /> Shape dough into a flat disk. Cover in plastic wrap and refigerate at least 15 minutes(maybe made 2 days ahead).<br /> Roll out chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut 3 inch circles with a cookie cutter or drinking glass.<br /> Place 1/2 teaspoon of whatever filling you want to use in the center and shape into Hamantashen. Place hamantashen 1 inch apart on a greased baking sheet or a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 20-35 minutes.<br /> yield about 4 dozen.</p> <p>Note: The orginal receipe has you brush the hamantashen with Egg white and then sprinkle Cinnamon-sugar on top. I skip that processs, but want to let you know that you have that option. </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes/page/2#post-40374 Thu, 05 Feb 2009 19:27:20 +0000 beacon 40374@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>Oomis, did you get a chance to try my recipe? </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes/page/2#post-40365 Thu, 05 Feb 2009 19:12:11 +0000 mazal77 40365@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>SJS- I don't recall saying I have a great Hamentashen receipe in any of my posts. If you want, the receipe I like to use if from the Kosher Palette. That receipe is a very good one. If you want I can write it down.</p> <p> For a chocolate filling, a friend of mine uses the Israeli Chocolate spread.<br /> Another tip for those who use jelly in the filling. I like to thicken the jelly with flour, so the jelly doesn't overflow. It usually works.</p> <p>Ames - I love Reisman's Hamantashen as well. I find the cookie part to be cake and yummy and if we are lucky to get them in Mishoach Manot, I try not to let the kids get to it. Mine all mine!!! ;) </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes#post-40331 Thu, 05 Feb 2009 18:27:30 +0000 lakewoodwife 40331@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>Okay, Here IT is...(sorry it took so long, I wasn't watching the new threads, thanks SJS for tipping me off)<br /> 3/4C marg<br /> 1C sugar<br /> 2 eggs<br /> 1t vanilla<br /> 2 1/2C flour<br /> 1t baking powder<br /> 1t salt</p> <p>Cream marg and sugar. Add in eggs &#38; vanilla then add remaining ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate dough for at least a few hours and up to a week. You can also freeze the dough.</p> <ul>A few notes</p> <li>when rolling dough (any) use powdered sugar instead of flour, It adds a sweet crust &#38; doesn't toughen the dough (this allows for limitless rerolling) </li> <li>This recipe multiplies well (my 5qt kitchen aid can handle a triple recipe, but not quite a quadruple) </li> <li>ask your own LOR, but mine said that if I make a trip or quad recipe I should take Challah without a Brocha </li> <li> This dough is <strong>very</strong> versatile: It makes great hamentashen, but I also use it for Chanukah cookies. It can be colored, shaped by hand, molded, I've even frozen rolls of it and then just sliced and baked (with sprinkles, nuts, etc.) </li> <li>I like to use the oven-safe fillings from <em>Baker's Choice</em>, but if you want to use jelly, try mixing it with ground nuts (then it doesn't leak out). I'm not so into chocolate (&#38; now my daughter is allergic) but from other baking I would try a mixture of:cocoa, sugar, powdered sugar, corn starch &#38; oil. You'll have to experiment with the ratios but it should work </li> <li>just to give proper credit, this recipe originally came from a <em>Big Bird</em> alphabet activity book that we had growing up. The recipe was on one of the first pages and a number of the letters had activities to do with it. I still have the book. </li> </ul> <p><strong>ENJOY!!!!</strong> <em>And if anyone has any questions I'll do my best to answer them</em> </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes#post-35817 Thu, 29 Jan 2009 00:54:17 +0000 oomis1105 35817@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>Try them oomis, you won't be disappointed! </p> <p>OK, Beacon, bli neder, I will.

What about taking a solid chocolate nugget and forming the triangle around it then baking? I never did this, so I have no idea. To me hamantashen have to be prune or poppy. Otherwise it is merely a PRETENDER to the throne.... </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes#post-35290 Wed, 28 Jan 2009 16:26:06 +0000 skates 35290@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>Thanks to those who posted dough recipes...however im STILL waiting for a good chocolate filling recipe!! and don't say chocolate chips cuz its not the same as a good chocolate filling!!

No apologies necessary. I happen to agree with you about moderation. My problem is my hamantashen are SO good, I can never eat them in moderation. I have been known (in the distant past) to remove some from SHALACH MANOS that I have already packed, because I wanted another one. I figured the person I am giving it to, won't know the difference if I send one or two rather than two or three. We always made the same thing for Purim every year when I was growing up. My mom would make her hamantashen, with all of us little elves helping her, and also a big batch of toll house cookies with chopped walnuts. To this day, the ONLY chocolate chip cookies that I consider to be authentic are the ones made from that original Toll House Morsels recipe (now made with paszkez chocolate chips, because Nestles are milchig.) </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes#post-34350 Tue, 27 Jan 2009 11:44:25 +0000 flatbush27 34350@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>oomis and amichai. your right. i apologolize for my distasteful remarks earlier. </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes#post-34329 Tue, 27 Jan 2009 10:42:16 +0000 oomis1105 34329@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>flatbush27, there is something very serious called diabetics and maybe they can't have even a little bit of the sugary stuff.not everyone was blessed skinny like you</p> <p>For the record skinny people can be diabetic, too. And many obese people NEVER become (though there is a greater risk to them of it happening). In any case, If I were diabetic, I would never eat sugar-free hamantashen. Some things are best left alone. Besides, people tend to forget, even if the filling is sugar-free, the DOUGH is made from flour which is a carbohydrate, hence it turns to sugar. Ya can't win! </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes#post-34327 Tue, 27 Jan 2009 10:34:12 +0000 oomis1105 34327@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>Chicken fat?

If you have no allspice, use cloves. These spices are very pungent and strong, so small doses are effective at flavoring something.<br /> Anyone who has ever eaten our hamanatashen has not gone back to plain prune again. </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes#post-34019 Mon, 26 Jan 2009 19:57:57 +0000 SJSinNYC 34019@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>I think it was mazal who posted that she has an awesome one.

The answer to this growing problem is MODERATION. you could eat 2 normal recipe hamantashen and you'll be fine and they will taste normal. </p> http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/hamantaschen-recipes#post-33986 Mon, 26 Jan 2009 18:21:39 +0000 feivel 33986@http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/ <p>whatever you make<br /> please dont be skimpy with the filling<br /> this is a chesorin with most hamentaschen ive eaten, homemade or bakery. </p>
