If you have 20 free minutes in the days leading up to Purim, make a batch of these Poppy Seed cookies and stick them in your freezer. Then you can pull them out on Purim day to serve for dessert at the end of the Purim meal or you can put them in your Purim food baskets. And when it isn't Purim, these cookies go well with a cup of milk, tea or coffee.
