Plan on making one of these costumes for Purim in the future.

No thanks. It would be way too hard to drive in that robo-getup to deliver my packages of goodies to friends. I make a new, different costume every year.

Here is MY acclaimed Hamentashen recipe. These are triangular pastries baked for Purim in remembrance of the 3-sided hat the evil grand vizier Haman used to wear. It was Haman (may his name be erased) who plotted to kill all the Jews in the ancient Persian kingdom ruled by King Ahasueros.

Hamentaschen

2 cups flour
2 t baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 lb. margarine
2 eggs
1 t vanilla extract
1/2 cup poppy seeds

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients well in mixer. Roll out dough on chilled surface to a bit less than 1/4" thick. Cut out circles with cookie cutter or small glass. Place dough rounds on greased cookie sheet. Using teaspoons--one to scoop up some filling and one to scrape it off the first spoon onto the round--place small amount of your favorite filling--poppy seed filling, apple butter, strawberry preserves, etc.--in the middle of each round. Bring up the edges of each round on 3 sides and then pinch the round thoroughly closed to form triangles. Bake for about 15-18 minutes, until lightly starting to brown at the corners. Let cool well before sampling!
