My thoughts:
Happy Purim! Any opor-garai where y'all lot bring an excuse to construct cookies is a skillful ane to me!I dearest hamantaschen every bit good every bit the fifty-fifty behind why we construct these cookies this 4th dimension of year. I wrote an cream cheese based hamantaschen, chocolate hamantaschen, pareve/vegan hamantaschen filled amongst kiwi jam, orange ginger hamantaschen, every bit good every bit pareve/vegan fig-orange hamantaschen spiked amongst butternut squash. As y'all lot sack tell, I genuinely like the favor of orangish inwards my hamantaschen! It is ane of the few fruits that are inwards season this twelvemonth every bit good every bit although this recipe uses extract every bit good every bit jam, it is a season that genuinely fits into this 4th dimension of year. Plus orangish juice is a usual add-on to hamantaschen that attain not role butter (some people who piece of job along kosher prefer a butter-less pareve/vegan version) every bit good every bit thence this gives y'all lot that season exactly also the richness of butter. Since we attain not piece of job along kosher, using butter isn't a concern.
While we bring made hamantaschen several times, I genuinely this mightiness concur upward our best batch yet! The dough was dull to motility amongst (no refrigeration needed) every bit good every bit every cookie held its shape--no jam escaping or unfolding! Plus the cookie was super tender every bit good every bit flavorful. Hamantaschen win!
