In response to a recent request for recipes for some Italian biscuits/
cookies made with pignoli....here is a collection of a variety of different
types which are popular in Italy...I hope they please!!
Place nuts in a shallow pan and bake in a 350F oven for 6 to 8 minutes or
until golden brown.  Let cool.  In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar
until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, lemon juice and zest. In a bowl,
combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add to the creamed mixture,
mixing until blended. Fold in nuts. Divide dough in half. On a greased and
floured baking sheet pat out into two logs about 1/2 inch high, 1.5 inches
wide and 14 inches long, spacing them at least 2 inches apart. Bake in the
middle of a 325F oven for 25 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer
from the baking sheet to a rack. Let cool for 5 minutes. Place on a cutting
board.  With a serrated knife slice diagonally at a 45 degree angle about
1/2 inch thick.  Lay the slices flat on the baking sheet and return to the
oven for 10 minutes longer, turning them over once, to dry slightly. Let
cool on a rack.  Store in a tightly covered container. These cookies keep
well. Makes 3.5 to 4 dozen.
