Priest’s Hats Cookies – Red Wine Butter Cookies with Red Currant Jam

Called Pfaffenhütte in German, these lovely tricornered butter cookies are made with red wine in the dough to give them extra flavor. 

They look similar to Hamentashen, the Jewish cookie popular at the Jewish holiday of Purim.What further sets them apart, aside from the red wine in the dough is the lovely red currant jam in the middle. Once you get how to fold the dough, the process goes fast.

Like most German cookies, these are not too sweet. Perfect for dessert, after a big meal or to pair with a good cup of coffee or tea. For the recipe hop on over to my German Food page.
