Lemon Macaroons.
1 pound of powdered sugar.
4 eggs, whipped very light and long.
Juice of 3 lemons, and peel of one.
1 heaping cup of prepared flour.
½ teaspoonful nutmeg.
Butter your hands lightly; take up small lumps of the mixture; make into balls about as large as a walnut, and lay them upon a sheet of buttered paper—more than two inches apart. Bake in a brisk oven.
