3 eggs
2 T. oil
2 c. flour (approximate)

Mix all ingredients, using only enough of the flour to make a soft dough just firm enough to roll with the hands. Divide the dough into 2 or 3 parts and roll with hands into ropes 3/8" thick. Cut into 1/2" pieces. Place on well greased cookie sheet and bake at 375° until golden brown. Shake pan occasionally or turn nuts, so that they brown evenly on all sides. Use as a garnish.
