What is Hamentashen?

I know it's part of the Purim holiday, but I have no clue as to what it is?

Hamentashen are cookies that are traditionally eaten on the Jewish holiday of Purim, which was today. The triangular shape represents the hat of the evil Haman, who tried to kill the Jews in Persia. Hamentashen are usually filled with raspberry, apricot or prune jelly, but sometimes can have chocolate in them instead - those are my favorite!

I'm embarrassed to say that I've never made my own Hamentashen !

Now, if it's a Mandel Bread bake off, you're on!
