• preheat oven to 300 degrees f (150 degrees c). line a baking sheet with parchment paper. draw a 9-inch circle on the parchment paper.

• spoon mixture inside the circle drawn on the parchment paper. working from the center, spread mixture toward the outside edge, building edge slightly. this should leave a slight depression in the center.
