HAMANTASCHEN
When chef Michael Solomonov and his business partner Steve Cook develop recipes for their Philadelphia restaurants (including Zahav, Abe Fisher and K'Far), they often start by talking about their mothers. "Someone will say, 'Oh wait, my mom makes it like this. Let me get her recipe,' " Michael says. Steve's mom, Susan, provided the dough recipe for these hamantaschen - traditional triangular jam-filled cookies that show up on their menus for the Jewish holiday of Purim. It's a pretty classic recipe, with a few exceptions: Susan adds brown sugar and maple extract to her version. The resulting cookie is extra chewy, and perfectly sweet. -Francesca Cocchi for Food Network Magazine

Steps:
- Make the dough: Beat the butter, both sugars, the egg, milk, vanilla and maple extract (if using) with a mixer on medium-high speed. Add the flour, baking powder and salt and beat until fully incorporated.
- Divide the dough into thirds and wrap each portion tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Form the hamantaschen: Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 375˚ F. Roll out one piece of dough on a floured surface until 1/8 inch thick. Use the rim of a juice glass to cut out 3-inch circles. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Spoon a teaspoon of the apricot preserves into the center of each circle of dough.
- Fold in the edges of the dough to form a triangle, pinching at the corners to keep the filling in but leaving the center filling slightly exposed.
- Bake the hamantaschen: Arrange the hamantaschen on 2 baking sheets (use nonstick pans or line the pans with parchment paper).
- Bake, rotating and switching the pans halfway through, until the hamantaschen are lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Let cool a few minutes on the baking sheets, then remove to a wire rack and let cool completely.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until lightly and fluffy. Stir in the oil, vanilla and orange juice. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the batter to form a stiff dough. If dough is not stiff enough to roll out, stir in more flour. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough out to 1/4 inch in thickness. Cut into circles using a cookie cutter or the rim or a drinking glass. Place cookies 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of preserves into the center of each one. Pinch the edges to form three corners.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool for 1 minute on the cookie sheet before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

Steps:
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using the flat beater on your stand mixer, beat the eggs, oil, sugar baking powder, salt and vanilla. Slowly add the flour, 1/2 cup at a time until a soft dough forms. Roll out the dough between two pieces of parchment paper, until it's 1/4 inch thick. Refrigerate the dough for at least a half hour.
- Cut out circles from the rolled out dough using a 3-inch round cookie cutter. Brush the edge of the circles with egg wash. Place one tablespoon of the filling of your choice on each circle and press up the sides to form triangles, pinching the ends closed.
- The scraps of dough can be pushed together and rerolled between sheets of parchment paper. Continue cutting and filling the dough, refrigerating it if it becomes too soft to fold easily. Place the filled hamantaschen in the refrigerator to rest for a half hour. This helps them keep their shape when they bake.
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. You can brush the outside of the hamantaschen with the egg wash and sprinkle with granulated or turbinado sugar.
- Bake the hamantaschen at 350 F. for 15 minutes on the middle rack of the oven. Allow them to cool, and enjoy.
