Ingredients




4 Eggs
1 cup Oil
1 1/4 cups Sugar
2 teaspoons Vanilla
3 teaspoons Baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
5 1/2 cups Flour

Preparation

1 Check the eggs for spots. 2 Mix the eggs together with the oil, sugar and vanilla. 3 Sift the flour, salt and baking powder together and add to the egg-sugar mixture. 4 Roll out and cut with round cookie cutter; fill with the filling your choice. Fold into triangles as Hamantaschen shape. Brush the unbaked hamantaschen with egg white and sprinkle with sugar before baking. 5 Note: This is a LARGE recipe and may be halved conveniently. When cutting and rolling out the dough, cover the piece of dough which is not yet being used with a piece of plastic wrap so it does not dry out.
