Serves: Makes 24 hamantaschen

A delicious combination of soft chocolate filling and crunchy biscuit.

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line two baking sheets with baking parchment.

  • To make the hamantaschen dough: in a large bowl, combine the oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla and whisk until smooth. In a separate medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until a smooth dough is formed. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate while you prepare the filling.

  • To make the brownie filling: Using the same wet and dry bowls you used for the hamantaschen dough, combine the sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla in the wet bowl and whisk until smooth. In the dry bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until smooth.
