I need a fabulous yummy hamentaschen recipe. And if you have mohn filling to go along with it, that would be really extra neat.

See, I haven't baked them in years. And aquariumgirl hasn't ever done it. So we wanna do it. And Purim is only a couple of weeks away.

So if you know how to do it, share share share share please?
