Combine the whole eggs, softened butter and a pinch of salt with the flour and knead to form an elastic and soft dough. Cover with a towel and allow to rest for one hour. Take the dough, cut into small strips, the thickness of a finger and about two centimetres long. Fry the dumplings in hot oil. Remove and place on absorbent paper to drain. Place a large sauce pan over a low flame and allow the honey to melt and remove once it turns transparent. Grate the peel of a lemon and add in the fried dumplings. Place in a large flat serving dish and arrange in the shape of a mountain. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler: drizzle the chocolate evenly over the pignolata and serve.
