Ingredients:
1 1/4 cup Flour
1 cup Sugar
1 cup Ground walnuts
2 Egg yolks
Grated rind of 1/2 lemon
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Ground cloves
10 tbsp Sweet butter

MMMMMICING

1 1/2 cup Confectioners sugar
1 Egg white
2 tbsp Lemon juice
2 drop Yellow food coloring (opt.)
Instructions:
A must on your Christmas cookie tray. Despite the lemony frosting,
the cinnamon flavor comes through.

On a pastry board, mix flour, sugar and walnuts. Form a mound, make
a well and add the egg yolks, lemon rind and spices. Cut the butter
in small pieces and add to the flour mixture. Knead thoroughly to
make a smooth dough.

Let dough rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

Preheat oven to 350ø. Roll dough out with a rolling pin to 1/8- inch
thick and cut into star shapes with a cookie cutter. Bake at 350ø
until cookies are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Let cool and
decorate with the icing.

To make icing, mix sugar, egg white, lemon juice and yellow food
coloring (if using) in a bowl until very smooth. (Icing has to be
thick enough so it will not run off stars.) Spread evenly with a
pointed knife on the stars. Let icing dry overnight. Store in a
cookie tin.

Note: If you like a less sweet cookie, omit the icing.

Yield: 6 dozen. Franziska Mayer, Washington, DC
