| 1. Grease and flour a large baking sheet. | 2. Preheat oven to 300°F. | 3. In a large bowl, beat eggs until fluffy. | 4. Add sugar gradually and continue beating until thickened and pale. | 5. Mix together the dry ingredients. | 6. Gradually add to egg mixture and mix until combined. | 7. Fold in lemon rind, candied fruit and almonds. | 8. This dough is soft and sticky, so either oil or wet your hands before handling. | 9. Divide dough into thirds. | 10. On the baking sheet, form the dough into three long flat "loaves" spaced a few inches apart to allow for spreading. If your baking sheet is large enough, it will all fit on one sheet. | 11. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until lightly browned. | 12. While the cookies are baking, make the icing by combining the ingredients. You should have a spreadable consistency. | 13. Remove cookies from the oven and let stand a few minutes. | 14. Ice the loaves while they are still on the baking sheet. | 15. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice the loaves crosswise into approximately 1/2-3/4 inch slices. Do not wait too long before slicing, as the icing will flake off if it cools too much before you slice. | 16. Allow to cool on the baking sheet. These freeze well and keep well. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
