- Mashed Potato Candy 1It sounds to me what you are looking for is what my Grandmother used to call potato candy. Peel and boil a SMALL potato. When it is fork tender, drain and mash, and start adding powdered sugar. It will become really liquid-y. Keep adding and stirring in sugar till you have a soft dough. Roll out manageable portions on a tea towel dusted with powdered sugar to about 1/4 inch thick. Spread with peanut butter (I make some creamy and some chunky).
- Using the towel to help, roll it up, and wrap with plastic or possibly foil and chill till hard. This is really rich, so cut it into thin slices and enjoy. Be sure to keep it tightly wrapped as it dries out quickly. Hope this is what you were looking for.
- Mashed Potato Candy - 21/2 c. mashed potatoes 3 Tbsp. margarine 1 tsp. vanilla 6 c. powdered sugar 18 ounce. peanut butter Flour (sufficient to roll out)
- Add in mashed potatoes, margarine and vanilla; beat together. Add in powdered sugar and beat till stiff sufficient to roll out like pie crust. Spread peanut butter on top and roll up like jellyroll. Cut into thin slices. Good Luck!
