Sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. In a bowl
beat eggs and sugar with a rotary beater or electric mixer until thick and
lemon-colored. Blend in sifted dry ingredients. Stir in citron and lemon
peel. Cover and chill. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease cookie sheets
lightly with unsalted shortening. Roll a small portion of the dough at a
time on a well- floured board to a thickness of 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Cut with a
2-inch cookie cutter. Place cookies 2 inches apart on prepared cookie
sheets. Bake 15 minutes, or until done. Remove cookies from sheets and cool
on wire cake racks. Makes 4-5 dozen cookies.
