Mmmmmmmmmmmarzipan. There are no words for how much I love marzipan and frangipane. I try to sneak it into all kinds of desserts or I just eat it straight out of the package. When I first made those cookies I was thrilled how frangipany they turned out. You basically have all the flavour from a nice peace of frangipane minus the heavy stickiness. Just soft chewy goodness…. and they are SO easy to make. So easy and yummy that they are now part of our christmas cookie repertoire.
