Directions
To prepare marzipan potatoes, crumble the marzipan mixture and knead it well until it is smooth - it is important to knead it well so that it is easier to shape later.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla sugar to the marzipan mixture and continue kneading until everything is well mixed - this may take a while, but it is important that the sugar is well distributed.
Now shape the sweet mixture into small 'potatoes'. The best way to do this is to take small pieces and roll them in your hands. They should be roughly the size and shape of real small potatoes.
Put the cocoa powder in a small bowl. Here's a tip for you: sieve the cocoa powder first to get it lump-free!
Now roll each 'potato' in the cocoa. This should completely cover the marzipan potato, giving them the typical brown 'potato look'.
Leave the marzipan potatoes to rest in the fridge for a few hours, preferably overnight. This will allow them to harden a little more and make them perfect for snacking.
