5 eggs, whites and yolks separated.

1 cup powdered sugar.

1 full cup prepared flour.

Juice and half the grated peel of 1 lemon.

A little salt.

1/2 grated nutmeg.

1 cocoanut, pared and grated.

Stir together sugar, and the whipped and strained yolks. To this put the lemon, salt and nutmeg. Beat in the flour and whites by turns, then the grated cocoa-nut.

Bake in square, shallow tins, or in one large card. It should be done in half an hour, for the oven must be quick, yet steady.

It is best eaten fresh.
