This is my feeble attempt at wishing everyone a fun and happy Purim. Slammed with catering these past few weeks, my creative Purim urges have been trapped in my brain. Due to my hectic schedule, once again I am not making hamentachen for the general community; it's just too much. That said, I did a happy feet dance when I finished the last of 3,000 hamentachen yesterday.
The most simple of tricks to create colored hamentachen requires a few spray cans of Wilton's colors. Not being up for kneading food color into the dough itself, I thought I'd give the spray a try. I simply sprayed the cookie disks, flipped them over and proceeded as usual. Voila! Instant color that stayed vibrant after baking.
My more sophisticated thoughts about new hamentachen will have to wait for next year :-(. Chag Sameach!
