Hamantaschen

At your Purim meal it's all about the Hamantaschen. These are our favorite Purim cookie recipes straight from our blog:

This is our traditional Hamantaschen recipe. It is a classic triangle shaped cookie that is usually filled with jelly, poppyseed filling, or prune.

Yellow Cake Mix Hamantaschen Hack
One of our most popular Hamantaschen recipes. This one cuts out the time waiting for the dough to set in the refrigerator. The hack is that this recipe uses yellow cake mix to make the Hamantaschen cookie. Fill with your favorite filling.

Other desserts

Hamantaschen are great but you are going to need some other desserts to serve at your Purim seuda. Here are some of our other dessert suggestions that we love:

The Best Vegan Funfetti Cake
This cake is a feast for the eyes as well as the stomach. Nothing says festive like thousands of colorful sprinkles both inside and on top of this cake. Use our pareve recipe for Quick and Easy Vanilla Buttercream Frosting with this cake for a dessert recipe worthy of Queen Esther herself.
