Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is ideal.
  • If you don't have marzipan, you can make your own by combining equal parts almond flour and powdered sugar in a food processor until it forms a smooth paste.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling and baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before decorating them. This will help the frosting set properly.
