Mashed Potato Candy is simple to make. This recipe is a family
christmas tradition. It is VERY sweet.
1/2 cup mashed potatoes
approximately 2 pounds powdered sugar
peanut butter, your choice chuncky or creamy
Mix mashed potato and 2 cups powdered sugar in good sized mixing
bowl. Potatoes will become watery at first. Continue adding powdered sugar
until mixture is thick enough to roll. It may not take all the sugar, or
it may take more, humidity will cause amounts to vary.
Sprinkle powdered sugar on pastry sheet. Take a portion of the
potato mixture and roll it out using a powdered sugar coated rolling pin.
When mixture is about 1/4 inch thick spread a layer of peanut butter over
the potato mixture. Starting on the longest side, roll the dough up into
a tight roll. Slice the roll into pieces about 1/2 inch thick.
Candy can be stored in a covered container.
