Enjoy,


HAMANTASCHEN

Cookie dough
3 eggs
4 cups flour
1 cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 cup oil
1/3 cup orange juice
canned prune or apricot for fillings

Filling
Traditional fillings are poppy seed and prune. Apricot, apple butter, pineapple preserves and cherry pie filling all work quite well.

1. With an electric beater, beat eggs, adding sugar gradually.
2. Add oil and beat well.
3. Combine flour and baking powder; add to egg mixture alternatively with the orange juice. Mix well. You may need to add a drop more juice if you think it is too dry or a little more flour if you feel it is too loose.
4. Divide dough and wrap in waxed paper.
5. Chill dough for several hours.
6. Remove dough from refrigerator. On a lightly floured surface, using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out dough to 1/8th inch thickness and cut into 2-1/2 inch circles.
7. Place a rounded teaspoon of filling in each center.
8. Pinch edges together firmly to form a closed triangle over the filling.
9. Place on a non-stick sprayed cookie sheet.
Bake in a 350-degree oven for 18-20 minutes or until golden. Cool on a rack.

Good morning, Billy..I finally found something on here..been looking and looking and found you today.

I guess it's just me..but I sure can't figure this new concept of the board..the previous was so easy
..but as I said, it's probably me.

CAN'T TEACH AN OLD DOG, NEW TRICKS.

Daughter and granddaughter just adopted a little dog, the cutest little Chihuahua......named Minnie. She came all the
way from Ky. I would send a pic along with this post but can't seem to locate where to send pictures.

Sounds like you are feeling much better and ready to enjoy Thanksgiving......so happy to read that.
