Rosalyn's Jiffy Hamantashen

In honor of the holiday of Purim, a fun holiday if there ever was one!

Rosalyn's Jiffy Hamantashen (Parve) The word Parve indicates: pure vegetable, no milk products or meat products

A note to anyone unfamiliar with Hamantashen--they are filled cookies made in the shape of a three-cornered hat. Just think of Napoleon's hat and you get the idea.
I wanted to make a Hamantashen without the bother of rolling the dough with a rolling pin or cooking a filling. And here they are! They are sweeter than the classic Hamantashen, more like a cookie than a pastry. These Hamantashen can be made ahead of time and frozen.

About 20 pitted prunes, cut in quarters
1 cup margarine
2 cups dark brown sugar (packed)
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups all-purpose flour, unsifted
Grease cookie sheets or spray with non-stick coating. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream margarine and sugar. Add eggs and beat well. Stir in salt, baking soda and vanilla. Gradually add flour. Take dough the size of a walnut and form into a ball. Flatten in your palm and place a piece of prune in the center. Fold dough up around prune into a triangle. Place on cookie sheets. Bake 10 to 11 minutes or until browned. Cool on racks. Makes 5 to 6 dozen.
