1 cup shelled pistachios
1 vanilla bean, scraped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for decorating
1 egg
1 egg white
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 tablespoon brandy
2 tablespoons lemon zest

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the pistachios for chopped walnuts. It was still delicious and I didn't miss the pistachios at all.
