Think marzipan is just for the pros? Think again. With this simple recipe, you can craft your own and make any dessert feel like a work of art.

8 ounces almond paste
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
3 drops food coloring
1 tablespoon egg white
In a bowl, combine almond paste, confectioners' sugar, food coloring and egg white until the mixture is smooth. Form it into a ball, sprinkle it lightly with sifted confectioners' sugar, and wrap it in wax paper. Chill the marzipan for 1 hour.
Sprinkle a 16-inch piece of wax paper with sifted confectioners' sugar and put the marzipan ball on it. Top the ball with another piece of wax paper and roll it out into a 15-inch circle.
Remove the top piece of wax paper. Lay the marzipan, paper side up, on the cake and peel off the paper. Press the marzipan against the sides of the cake and trim off any excess around the bottom.
Dust the top of the torte with sifted confectioners' sugar.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
