Strawberry Halva Hamantaschen Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Gradually add in the milk, mixing until the dough comes together. If the dough is too dry, add a little more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time.

Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut out circles from the dough.

Place a teaspoon of strawberry jam and a sprinkle of crumbled halva in the center of each circle.

Fold the edges of the circles up and pinch the corners together to create a triangle shape, leaving some of the filling exposed in the center.

Place the hamantaschen on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

Allow the hamantaschen to cool completely on a wire rack before dusting with powdered sugar. Serve and enjoy!
