Posted in response to a recipe request. Hamentashen are the filled triangular pastries eaten on the Jewish holiday of Purim. Traditional fillings are either prune or poppy seed. In the last 15 years or so I've been having a lot of fun coming up with other fillings, like peanut butter and chocolate, and apple cinnamon. Prep time includes the time the dough takes to rise.
