    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup margarine
    1/3 cup sugar
    1 egg
    juice of 1 lemon
    1/4 tsp grated lemon rind
    1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup ground almonds or walnuts
    raspberry or strawberry jelly
    sugar

    Cream margarine and sugar in mixing bowl. Add egg, lemon juice and
    lemon rind. Mix until smooth. Add flour and nuts. Wrap in plastic
    wrap and flatten. Refrigerate dough 30 minutes.

    Heat oven to 350 degrees. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface
    to 1/8-inch thickness. Use a round 2-inch cookie cutter to cut out
    circles from dough. Cut out an inner circle with a smaller round
    cookie cutter from half of the circles to make a "cookie ring."

    Bake circles and rings until light golden, 10 to 12 minutes.

    Transfer to wire rack to cool. Spread a small amount of jelly on
    each whole circle. Press a cookie ring on top of it. Shake the
    cookies one at a time in a bowl of sugar to coat well. Store in a
    covered dish.

    Note: Confectioners' sugar can be used to coat the cookies in place
    of granulated.
