Hamentashen

4 eggs, slightly beaten
3/4 cup corn oil
3/4 cup granulated sugar
Grated rind of 1 orange
5 cups sifted flour
Lekvar or apple butter

Combine slightly beaten eggs corn oil sugar and orange rind. Beat until mixture is fluffy and thick. Gently stir in flour. Chill about 1 1/2 hours or until firm.

Divide dough into quarters. Roll out each on floured board or cloth to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into 2 1/2- or 3-inch circles and place on greased cookie sheet. Spoon 1 tablespoon Lekvar or apple butter into center of each. Form tri-corners bringing up edges of dough almost to center and making three seams (some filling should show in center). Pinch seams together tightly. Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
