This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

How "does it not work"? Is the flavor wrong? baking time? missing an ingredient? More information is helpful for anyone else who wishes to try the recipe.

This recipe doesn't work!! I followed the other reviewer's comment, added additional 1/4 cup of magarine. Couldn't form a dough still. Added another 1/8 cup of water, then a large egg. Still no luck. I wrapped the whole thing into a ball using foil and stuffed it into the fridge. But the thing is completely powderly. I don't expect the dough will form when I wake up tomorrow morning. Most likely I've to throw this away and use another recipe. What a waste of time.

I had to add more water and another 1/4 cup of margarine to make this recipe into dough. Also, following the direction to add water to the flour gives you a dough filled with little chips of flour which are virtually impossible to incorporate.
