slowly to beaten eggs and stir in lemon juice and grated lemon rind. Add
dry ingredients and nuts and mix well. Refrigerate 2 hours. Roll out 1/2"
thick and cut with tiny cutter 3/4" round. Let cookies stand over night in
cool place on ungreased cookie sheet. Just before baking, put a drop of
brandy on each cookie. Bake brandy side up [don'tcha just love it?] in 300
deg F oven for 1/2 hour. Cool thoroughly and place in tightly covered jar.
