Hamentaschen Baking Day

February 28, 2016 by HCRJ Web Admin Leave a Comment

Purim is Coming!  Purim is Coming!

 

Join us for a morning of coffee, conversation and hamentaschen baking!   Hamentaschen made will be used for our oneg and Religious School.

This is a great way to get involved and meet new people.  No experience needed.

Want to make hamentaschen at home?  Here is a recipe we found on Reform Judaism.org

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
Filling:
6 ounces chocolate chips
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg, beaten
Directions:
Combine all dough ingredients and blend well to make cookie dough. Roll thinly on lightly floured board.
Combine all filling ingredients except egg in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat until melted. Remove from heat. Blend in egg.
Cut dough into circles and place one teaspoon of filling in each center. Pinch up sides to form 3-pointed hamantasch.
Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
