Beat the eggs, powdered sugar and butter or margarine. Gradually add the flour carefully, as well as the semolina with vanilla and baking powder.

Shape balls of dough and arrange them in an oven dish.

In each ball, place one nut, brush with egg yolk and put to bake in a preheated 300°F (150 °C) oven for about 45 minutes. In the meantime, prepare the sugar syrup, which has to cool completely.

Boil the sugar syrup for 15 minutes and finally mix it with the lemon juice. Pour the cooled sugar syrup over the sheqerpare immediately.

Just curious: Why would you use powder sugar to incorporate in the dough? Regular sugar is always used in making sheqepare. Does "powder sugar" make it better?
