Lemon Pine Nut Torta



My fiend Jinny and her husband Rob have great pallets and impeccable taste. Jinny served this lemon pine nut torta at one of their great dinner parties many years ago and it's become a personal favorite. It's not very sweet, which I think is sophisticated but may not be for everyone. I also like the twist of pine nuts in a dessert which you don't see too often.

It is super easy and I don't bother with the poached fruit in the recipe. I am not a huge fan of cooked fruit and the torta is delicious all on it's own.
