I found it! The Story of the Baklava in Folktales of the Jews: Vol 1, Tales from the Sephardic Dispersion, Dan Ben-Amos, editor.
It was a baklava, not a hamentaschen....a Christian, a Jew and a Muslim, found a coin, bought a baklava. The one with the best dream gets it the next morning. The Jew ended up eating it during the night - couldn't wake the others. Christian dreamed that J.esus came and carried him to Paradise. Muslim dreamed that Muhammed came and showed him Paradise. Jew didn't get to paradise. Instead, Moses came and said the Muslim is with Muhummed in Mecca, the Christian is with Jesus in Nazareth. Who knows when they'll return or whether they'll return. So Moses advised him to eat the baklava. Toby Harris, Librarian Temple De Hirsch Sinai 1511 E.
