 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2                    eggs
      2/3  cup           sugar
    1      cup           all-purpose flour
      1/4  cup           pine nuts -- toasted
 
 Combine the eggs and sugar in a heavy saucepan and whisk constantly over
 low heat until the mixture is lukewarm and light in texture, about 3-5
 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk until cool; gradually stir in the flour
 until the batter is smooth.
 
 Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter 2 baking sheets and drop the batter by
 teaspoonfuls onto the pan, leaving about 1 inch between cookies. Let sit 5
 minutes. Place 4 or 5 pine nuts on top of each cookie and let them sit
 another 5 minutes. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove
 from the baking sheets while still warm and let cool on racks.
 
 [Makes about 36 cookies. 35 cals, 0.7g fat]
