Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir pine nuts in the hot skillet until toasted and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- Beat white sugar and butter together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Beat eggs, 1 at a time, into creamed butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Whisk flour and baking powder in a separate bowl; stir into creamed butter mixture until dough is just mixed. Fold pine nuts into dough.
- Spread corn flakes into a shallow baking dish. Form dough into balls, about 1 tablespoon per cookie; roll each in the corn flakes, pressing gently to coat. Arrange cookies, 1-inch apart, on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 23 minutes. Cool cookies on the baking sheets and dust with confectioners' sugar.

ITALIAN PINE NUT COOKIES
This outstanding recipe is different from the other Pignoli submissions on Zaar. It's originally from the King Arthur Flour company and you can buy the ingredients to make them on their web site www.kingarthurflour.com. (I don't work there but I'm a fan of their products.)

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
- Break the marzipan in pieces into a medium-sized bowl. Mix in the sugar, salt, flavorings and almond flour; the mixture will be crumbly. Add the egg white, beating until the mixture is smooth.
- Place the pine nuts in a shallow dish. Using a teaspoon cookie scoop, or your lightly oiled or wets hands, drop one inch balls of dough into the pine nuts, rolling and pressing gently to coat them thoroughly. You may also simply grab a handful of pine nuts, and roll the dough between your palms, pressing in pine nuts as you go.
- Place the cookies on lightly greased or parchment-lined cookie sheets, leaving about one inch between them.
- Bake the cookies for 20 to 22 minutes, or until they're lightly browned. Cool them on the pans for five minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
CORNMEAL PINE NUT COOKIES
Light and buttery, these tender cookies have a subtle corn flavor and a texture similar to ladyfingers or madeleines. They keep well and are just as delicious with a pot of tea.

Steps:
- Using a stand mixer, food processor or a large bowl and handheld mixer, cream butter and sugar until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in lemon zest, almond extract, whole egg and egg yolks until well incorporated.
- In a medium bowl, stir together flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt.
- Add flour mixture to butter mixture to combine, then fold in pine nuts and mix thoroughly, taking care not to overwork the dough. (The dough will be rather soft and sticky.)
- Divide dough in two, and, using plastic wrap, form each half into a log about 1 inch in diameter. Refrigerate for 2 hours and up to overnight.
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. Slice cold dough into 1/2-inch pieces. (Each slice should weigh ½ ounce/15 grams.) Place slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet 2 inches apart. Press 2 or 3 pine nuts into the surface of each slice. Bake 13 to 15 minutes, until barely browned. Dust lightly with powdered sugar.

PIGNOLI COOKIES
There are two kinds of pignoli cookies I grew up eating. While the crunchy version is also delicious, I am a sucker for the sweet chewiness of this soft, meringue-y version. They are also gluten free so I like to include them on holiday plates so everyone has something to enjoy.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Break apart the almond paste in the bowl of a food processor. Add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, salt and egg white and pulse until smooth. Scoop 1-tablespoon balls of dough directly into the pine nuts and gently roll them in the pine nuts, pressing gently to adhere. (The dough is soft but the pine nuts will help make it easier to handle.)
- Place the cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned around the edges and puffed, 16 to 18 minutes. Allow to cool completely on the tray before removing them with an offset spatula.

Steps:
- Spread pine nuts in a wide frying pan and toast, shaking frequently, over moderate heat. As soon as they are golden brown -- less than 2 minutes -- pour them onto a plate to cool, then put them in the refrigerator or freezer to chill.
- With two oven racks, divide the oven into thirds. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two cookie sheets with baking parchment.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the butter, honey, sugar, salt and liquor. On low speed, beat in the flour; then, working quickly, the chilled pine nuts.
- Using two teaspoons, make 24 equal pieces, picking up a bit of dough with one spoon and pushing it off onto the lined tray with the other. Chill in the freezer for about 5 minutes, then roll the mounds into balls with your hands, flattening them slightly. Place 1-inch apart on the sheets.
- To decorate and flatten more, dip a fork into cold water and use the back of the tines to press the cookies (in one direction only) until they are about 1/2 inch thick. Wet the fork for each cookie.
- Bake on the upper and lower levels of the oven, reversing the sheets top to bottom and front to back once during baking. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until cookies are lightly colored and crisp. Transfer to racks, and let cool completely. Store in an airtight tin.

PIGNOLI COOKIES (ITALIAN PINE NUT COOKIES)
These are a traditional Italian Christmas cookie, that are chewy, almondy and delicious! We always have a bunch of these cookies on hand around the holidays in my family. **Please note, that the dough will be very sticky and a lil bit of a pain to work with, but they end up being so worth the effort. Adding flour to this dough changes the texture of them somewhat, so I never add it, but that's a personal choice :) These cookies end result are just like I had them as a little girl, and are my absolute favorite!
