Chanukah Cookies!

I whipped up a batch of Chanukah cookies last weekend for a get together I was going to. I actually used my Hamantashen dough and just used my cookie cutters - win win!

 I had my mix of dreidels, stars, and menorahs.

Half of them I used sprinkles on and the other half I piped the outline in icing and for the dreidels put the Hebrew letters from the dreidel. 

They came out pretty good (would have been better had I chilled the dough, but c'est la vie!) and it was a fun holiday tradition from my childhood that I was able to get around to this year.

And....here's the recipe!

6 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup oil
4 cups flour (apprx)
1 tsp vanilla
2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup orange juice

Mix everything together and add flour if need be to get the dough to come together. Chill for a few hours and then roll and bake at 350º for about 10 minutes or until brown on the bottom.

Enjoy!
