Traditional Hamantaschen Cookies
Ingredients
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 5 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 cup fruit preserves, any flavor
Instructions
1
Acquire the necessary components for preparation.
2
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).

Spray cookie sheets lightly with a non-stick cooking spray.
4
Combine eggs and sugar in a large mixing container; utilize an electric mixer to blend until a uniform consistency is achieved.
5
Stir in oil, orange juice, and vanilla extract to create a harmonious mixture.
6
In another bowl, blend flour and baking powder; incorporate the resulting mixture into the batter to form a cohesive dough.
7
If necessary, supplement the dough with additional flour to achieve the desired consistency.
8
Transfer the dough onto a lightly dusted surface and roll it out into a 1/2-inch thickness.
9
Utilize a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out circular shapes; place them 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
10
Spoon approximately 1 to 2 teaspoons of preserves into the center of each cookie.
11
Fold the edges of the cookie to form a triangular shape.
12
Place the cookies in the preheated oven and bake until they are lightly browned, taking approximately 12 to 15 minutes.
13
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the cookie sheets for 1 minute.
14
Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and continue cooling until they are completely cooled.
