Ingredients:
3 cups flour
1/2 loving cup sugar
3/4 loving cup butter, room temperature
3 eggs, at room temperature
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons orangish zest
1/2 teaspoon terra firma roasted or regular ginger

jam (I used my Cara Cara Orange Jam)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375. Line ii cookie sheets amongst silipats or parchment paper. In a large bowl, musical rhythm out together the butter, carbohydrate too egg. Add the remaining dry out ingredients. Mix until smooth. Roll the dough out onto a clean, floured surface. When the dough is virtually a 1/4 inch thick, cutting 2 1/2-3 inch* circles out of the dough. Place them on the prepared pans. Spoon approximately jam into the middle of each circle. Fold 3 sides towards the pump too press downward (this business office is unremarkably referred to every bit "pinching" the corners but it should survive to a greater extent than similar "pressing") to shape a triangle. Bake 12 minutes or until golden.




*I role my doughnut cutter amongst the insert removed.

Yield: 2-3 dozen cookies depending on size.

Note: I recommend solely rolling out the scraps once.


My thoughts:
I fancy myself approximately what of a hamantaschen connoisseur. I wrote an cream cheese based hamantaschen amongst fig too ginger filling, chocolate hamantaschen too vegan hamantaschen (which is perfect for people who operate on kosher because it is dairy free) filled amongst kiwi jam. I haven't made hamantaschen inwards a distich of years but when I got into canning, I knew I'd accept to brand a batch. For this version I went for a to a greater extent than butter cookie-esque dough too flavored it amongst lots of fresh zest too terra firma ginger. So good! I am happy to tell nosotros did non accept a unmarried cookie unfold from the entire batch. Take help to press downward those corners.

The citrus scented cookie was sent the side yesteryear side degree yesteryear my role of the orangish jam but whatever citrus jam or fifty-fifty marmalade would survive tasty. Or really, whatever jam every bit long every bit it is fairly thick. Thin jams or jellies volition run out of the cookies too scorch.
