Place the dry ingredients in a bowl and stir to mix. Add the pine nuts and the butter and cut into the flour mixture. Stir in the eggs and add just enough cream to make a stif dough. Put the dough on a floured board and pat it out into a circle about ¼-½ inch thick. Cut into wedges and place wedges on a cookie sheet at least one inch apart. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or til nicely browned. Sprinkle with additional cardamom and serve with plum jam.

Note: You may increase the amount of cardamom or substitute coriander for a stronger flavor. You can also leave out the pine nuts and add a small amount of additional butter.
