- Blend for several minutes. You want a sort of malleable paste to form. It should be quite smooth, but still solid enough to roll balls out of it.
- Form small balls and place on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper. Freeze for at least 30 minutes before coating in raw chocolate or melted dark chocolate (optional).
Notes
Leave the chocolate out if you want to make marzipan potatoes. In that case, place the marzipan in a sealed container in the refrigerator and don't coat in chocolate.
