Steps:
- Preheat your oven to around 180°C or 356°F. Prepare two baking trays with baking parchment. You might want to warm the marzipan for 30 seconds in the microwave to make it smoother to work it. This avoids lumps in the dough.
- Using a hand or stand mixer, combine the butter and marzipan to a smooth mass.
- One by one add in the sugar, vanilla sugar and almond essence. Mix until everything is combined.
- Now add the eggs one by one into the mass. The mixer should be on its highest setting for 30 seconds while you add them.
- Combine the flour and corn starch/corn flour. Sieve the flour mixture. Add the dry ingredients to the dough in two separate portions. Mix after adding each portion. The mixer should be set at medium speed.
- Now add the dough in little amounts to the piping bag or cookie press (whichever you are using)
- Pipe the cookies in circles onto the prepared baking tray. They should be around 5 cm in diameter. Bake for around 10-15 minutes until the cookies are firm.
- Pull them (with the baking parchment) off the hot tray.
- Once the cookies cooled down you can dust them with icing sugar. Another alternative is to dip them into some melted dark chocolate.

Steps:
- Place almonds in a heat-proof bowl and cover with boiling water. Let stand for a few minutes until cool enough to handle. Slip the almonds out of their skins one by one, leaving the remaining almonds in the warm water. Drain almonds in a colander.
- Place almonds and confectioners' sugar in the food processor fitted with a metal blade and process to a paste. Add cold water, 1/2 to 1 teaspoon at a time, if the paste is too dry. Scrape the sides a few times to ensure even processing. Add a few drops of almond extract towards the end of the process. Process marzipan until it is smooth and no longer grainy. Wrap in plastic wrap and store in a cool, dry place.

EASY VANILLA MARZIPAN
It's worth having a go at making your own marzipan to cover your Christmas cake - and you can experiment with adding different flavours

Steps:
- Mix the sugars and almonds in a large bowl, then rub in the vanilla seeds until even. Make a well in the middle, then tip in the eggs and citrus juice. Cut the wet ingredients into the dry with a cutlery knife. Dust the surface with icing sugar, then knead the marzipan briefly with your hands to a smooth dough. Don't overdo it as the paste can get greasy. Add a bit more icing sugar if it seems too wet. Shape into a ball, then wrap and keep in a cool place until ready to cover the cake. Can be made up to 2 days in advance.
- Lift the cake onto a cake board or plate, then use a pastry brush to cover evenly with a thin layer of jam. Dust the work surface with more icing sugar, then roll the marzipan into a circle about 40cm across, dusting underneath the marzipan with more icing sugar and turning it a quarter turn after every few pushes of the rolling pin.
- Flip the top of the circle back over your rolling pin so you can see the underside of the marzipan, then lift the pin up and lift the marzipan over the cake. Stop once you can see that the edge of the marzipan nearest you is about level with the bottom of the cake. Flop the front of the marzipan down. Smooth the paste over the cake using the palms of your hands, then trim with a sharp knife. If any cracks appear, simply pinch the paste back together and smooth. Leave to dry for at least 24 hrs, or up to 3 days, before covering with icing.
- How long does homemade marzipan keep? Although homemade marzipan contains raw eggs, the amount of sugar, and lack of moisture, prevents bacteria growing when left at room temperature, so your cake should last for 1-2 months iced. The most important thing is that you don't scrimp on drying time - once you've covered your cake in marzipan it should be left to completely dry out, before you then cover it with icing. If you want to make marzipan before you are ready to cover your cake, then wrap it well in cling film and keep in a fridge for up to a week - as wrapped in a ball it will still contain a little moisture. As it contains raw eggs it shouldn't be given to anyone in an at-risk group, including pregnant women, the elderly, the unwell and the very young. You can make a cooked marzipan, which carries no risks. It is a little softer, and harder to work with, but a good substitute if you are at all worried.

Steps:
- Crumble the marzipan into a bowl with your fingers. Mix in the egg white, icing sugar, flour, ground almonds, cinnamon, amaretto and a pinch of salt until you have a soft dough.
- Heat the oven to 175C/fan 155C/gas 3½. Cover 2 baking sheets with baking parchment. Make 25 small balls from the dough with your hands and space them out on the baking sheets. Press down on each dough ball with the back of a fork to make a groove pattern.
- Brush the egg yolk glaze over the cookies. Now sprinkle with chopped almonds, if using. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Cool completely.
