How to Make Chocolate Hamentashen Filling

  1. Melt 5 oz (142g) semisweet chocolate and 1 oz (28g) unsweetened chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  2. In a separate bowl, cream together ½ cup (113g) margarine, ¼ cup (30g) all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, ¼ tsp salt, 2 large eggs, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1 tbsp strong brewed coffee, and ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined. Stir in ½ cup (60g) chocolate chips and ½ cup (60g) chopped nuts (optional).
  4. Spoon the filling into prepared hamentashen dough. Any leftover filling can be baked as chocolate brownie drop cookies (bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes).
  5. Makes enough filling for at least 3 dozen hamentashen.
