- 2 egg yolks
- tart jelly
- beaten egg white
- finely chopped nutmeats and sugar

- After it is rolled between the hands, flatten slightly to about 3/4 of an inch thick.
- Make a small indentation in the center with finger large enough to hold a small amount of tart jelly.
- Brush each cookie with slightly beaten egg white and sprinkle with finely chopped nutmeats and sugar.
- Put in refrigerator for about 1 hour.
- Bake in slow oven (250u0b0) for 20 minutes, then gradually increase heat to 300u0b0 and bake about 40 minutes.
