Marzipan
First you need a cookie sheet with a 1/2 inch lip edge
make pastry to cover the bottom and the sides of the
cookie sheet . This can be done in 2 pieces if you
cannot roll 1 large piece.
Pats no fail pie crust even if you cannot make pie
crust you can make this
Pie Crust
1/4 cup margarine
1/2 pound shortening
Cream together
1/2 tsp salt
Add just a bit of sugar
3 cups flour
1/2 cup water
add the salt and sugar then the flour 1 cup at a time
this makes a sticky mixture so you can either add
more flour or more water to make it right
Roll out from the bowl and knead in a floured
surface about 10 times to make a ball and cut in
half
Now I use the whole ball to make the crust for the
cookie sheet . We like a thicker crust it tastes better
Next step
Put a thin layer of strawberry jam over the pie crust
This pie crust is raw so
This is tricky I use a spatula and spread gently
You will need about 3/4 of a large jar 16 oz. size
Next Step
Cake mix
2/3 cup of white sugar
1/2 cup of butter do not substitute
Cream till fluffy
add 2 egg whites and beat till fluffy
mix to butter mixture
Then add 2/3 cup rice flour and 1/4 tsp salt
Add just a few drops of almond flavoring
Tip
You will need 2 batches of the batter to cover the
pastry
Again spread the batter gently onto the jam and
crust
Bake in oven 400 degrees for 10 minutes and
then at 350 degrees for 20 minutes ---the crust
should be golden and flaky
Let this cool several hours
Icing
1 bag icing sugar
1/4 cup butter (do not substitute)
6 drops almond flavoring
mix just enough milk to make icing spread able
Spread on cool cake with a spatula again gently
as the rice flour cake is flaky and you do not
want it in the icing.
IMPORTANT NOTE
If freezing do not ice as it will go soggy and runny
Ice only after it thaws from the freezer
This is a very old recipe I hope you enjoy it .
