Ingredients
- 200 grams Almond flour
- 200 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Almond extract
- 1 teaspoon Rose water (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 3 tablespoons Cocoa powder
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and powdered sugar. Mix well until they are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Add the almond extract and rose water (if using) to the almond flour and sugar mixture.
Step 3
Gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition, until the mixture forms a firm but pliable dough. Be careful not to add too much water as the dough should not be sticky.
Step 4
Knead the dough gently with your hands until smooth.
Step 5
Take small portions of the dough and roll them into balls about the size of a small potato or cherry. Place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.
Step 6
Place the cocoa powder in a shallow bowl or plate. Roll each marzipan ball lightly in the cocoa powder until evenly coated, giving them the appearance of tiny potatoes.
Step 7
Tap off any excess cocoa powder and arrange the finished Marzipankartoffeln on a serving plate or store them in an airtight container.
Step 8
Serve as a sweet treat or gift for friends and family. Enjoy!
