It seems to me that the source for those women who treat taking chalah
as an eis ratzon for tefilah is the mishneh in Bameh Madlikin, and perhaps
also the line in the zemer _Yom Shabbos Kodesh Hu_ that talks about the
reward for women who keep these three mitzvos, rather than the punishment
for those who don't.
