    Utensils Used
    | 1. Put sugar and eggs in top of a double boiler (I improvise with a heat-proof bowl set over a saucepan). | 2. The water should be hot, but not boiling. | 3. Beat until the mixture is lukewarm. | 4. Remove from over the hot water and keep beating until foamy and cool. | 5. Add lemon rind and flour slowly; gently blend into egg mixture. | 6. Drop by the spoonful (I drop 2 tsp for each cookie) onto buttered and floured baking sheets (or lined with parchment paper). | 7. Shape into neat circles with your finger, if you wish (this may get a bit messy). | 8. Leave a 1-inch space between each cookie. | 9. Sprinkle with the powdered sugar and press the pine nuts in a decorative pattern on each cookie (blanched slivered almonds would probably work just as well, if you don't have pine nuts). | 10. Let stand for ten minutes and then bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 15 minutes. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
