remove from the pan onto a butter paper. add another sheet on top and roll it thin using a rolling pin
roll it as evenly as possible. add the remaining nuts on top and roll again lightly.

flip the side to let it dry on the other side. this will take about 24-36 hours to turn in ice form. slight crust on both sides will form.
