2 Eggs
4 oz (125 g/ 1/2 cup) caster
-(superfine) sugar

8 oz (225 g/ 3 cups) fine,
-unsweetened desiccated
-(dried and shredded)

These should be slightly moist inside, crunchy on the outside. If the
mixture seems too soft to hold its shape, stir in a little more coconut.

Beat the eggs and sugar until creamy, then stir in the lemon juice, rind
and coconut. Form into pyramids using an egg cup moistened inside with cold
water to prevent sticking. Bake at Gas No. 5 (375 F/ 190 C) for 18-20
minutes, until tinged with golden brown. Don't overcook!
