I put the dough in the freezer to cool it off again, hoping to make it workable for a third chance. The more I work it, the poorer the quality the marzipan becomes. Hubby will be home in about an hour. I need some spiritual intervention.
I'm sprinkling flour on my baking shrine in hopes that the gods of the oven smile upon you.
