Delicious, not-too-sweet cookies filled with poppyseeds.

Yield 3 dozen cookies
Time 1 hour
Tools
  • 2 mixing bowls
  • whisk
  • sifter
  • wooden spoon
  • small bowl
  • baking sheet(s)
  • rolling pin
  • cookie cutter or glass with fine rim
Ingredients
  • 3 eggs
  • ¾ c vegetable oil
  • 1¼ c sugar
  • 3½ c white flour
  • 2 t baking powder
  • ¼ t salt
  • ½ c poppyseeds
  • ½ t cinnamon
Directions Briefly whisk together the eggs, then add the oil and 1 c sugar. In another bowl, sift flour, baking powder, and salt, then stir in poppyseeds. Combine wet and dry ingredients into a stiff dough.

Sprinkle some flour on your counter and knead the dough until smooth. Divide dough into three or four balls, place in bowl, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
