Preparation

Step 1

In a bowl beat butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla together. Add flour and salt. Mix well. This would make a stiff dough.

Roll dough flat with a rolling pin. Turn a glass upside down and press it down hard on the dough to cut a circle.

Fill each circle with a spoonful of jam or topping.

Pinch the corners of the dough together to form a triangle. Put the hamantaschen on a well greased cookie sheet.

Bake at 350 degrees,for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
