Hamantaschen Cookies filled with Muirhead  Green Tomato Mincemeat


3/4 cup butter, softened
½ cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. grated orange peel
½ tsp. vanilla extract
¼ cup milk
3 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 jar Muirhead  Green Tomato Mincemeat
egg wash (1 egg and 1 tbsp water)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 2 baking sheets and set aside. Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in egg. Mix together grated orange peel, vanilla, and milk. Alternate flour and milk mixture, beating well after each addition. Form dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for an hour. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/8" thickness. Cut dough with floured 3" round plain cookie cutter. DO NOT ROLL THE DOUGH TOO THICK. Place a ½ tablespoon of Muirhead  Green Tomato Mincemeat in the center of each circle. Pinch three edges of the dough together to form a triangle, leaving the center of the filling exposed. Place on baking sheets and brush with egg wash. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from baking sheets and cool completely on wire racks. About 30 cookies
