Instructions:
-
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 325 degrees. This ensures the perfect environment for your Kichelach to transform into golden perfection.

In a mixing bowl, embark on the journey of flavor by beating the eggs until they achieve a light, airy consistency. Now, introduce the oil, sugar, flour, and a pinch of salt to the mix. Continue beating until your concoction achieves a state of heavenly smoothness that promises a melt-in-your-mouth experience.
-
Optionally, stir in the poppy seeds. These tiny wonders add a delightful crunch and an earthy nuance that elevates your Kichelach to a whole new level. Spoon the batter onto a greased baking sheet, allowing about 3 inches of space between each dollop. Be prepared for a magical transformation in the oven as they spread and puff, creating cookie masterpieces.
