MARZIPANKARTOFFELN - GERMAN MARZIPAN POTATOES

Marzipankartoffeln are baby potatoes made from marzipan and are traditionally given to friends in little bags or placed on the goodie plate at Christmastime. One can buy ground almonds as almond flour or as almond meal. If those are unavailable, blanch two cups of almonds, peel and finely grind in your food processor. Originally, the binder would have been an egg white, but because of health concerns, it's been left out of this recipe. Courtesy of Jennifer McGavin.

  • Place the marzipan in a large mixing bowl with the powdered sugar. Use your hands to knead the mixture until the powdered sugar is incorporated. The marzipan will be stiff but should be malleable and able to be rolled into small balls without crumbling apart. If necessary, add the water and more if necessary, a few drops at a time.
  • Place the cocoa powder in a small bowl and add the marzipan balls in a few at a time, tossing them in the chocolate until coated.
  • Place a sieve over the bowl and shake the chocolate-covered marzipan balls in it to release the excess chocolate.

  • Place your marzipan (homemade with our super easy recipe or store-bought) into a bowl. Sift in the powdered sugar and mix everything together with your hands. Add a few drops of water at a time until the overall marzipan consistency is no longer overly crumbly.
  • Take a little bit of the marzipan mixture to form a small round ball or potato shape. Use your fingers to compress the marzipan into itself as you shape the "potato" in your cupped palm. Our potatoes ended up being about 1 and 1/2 inches on the long side.
  • Now it's time to coat the potato in cocoa powder. To do that either roll the potato in a bowl of cocoa powder (for a heavier, darker cocoa coating) or place a pinch of cocoa powder into your palm and lightly tumble the potato in the powder (for a lighter, more realistic coating).
  • Place the completed marzipan potatoes on a small plate or parchment paper and repeat until you have used up all of the marzipan mixture.
