Hamantaschen
Heya, Long time no see! This recipe is slightly different to all my others. Hamantaschen or "osnei Haman," meaning Hamans ears, are a triangle shaped, shortbread-type biscuit. Purim was always my favourite festival growing up—maybe it was the costumes, the storytelling, or (let’s be honest) the endless supply of sweet treats. But nothing captures the spirit of Purim quite like hamantaschen, those iconic three-cornered cookies filled with anything from poppy seeds (instant red flag if this is your filling of choice) to chocolate. This year, I decided to add an "interfaith" twist by using Mini Eggs. The crispy, buttery dough paired with the crunch of chocolate eggs makes for the perfect festive treat. One common argument within the Jewish communities is pinch or fold when it comes to shaping. I personally pinch the dough then fold so it holds the shape but I know some people that only do one or the other. This recipe was actually originally from Instagram however...
