Ingredients
·
1 small potato (should fit in a 1 cup measuring
cup, you can also use half of a medium potato) peeled and cut into 1-2 inch
pieces (alternate option:
1/2 cup plain mashed potatoes)
·
6-8 cups powdered sugar
·
2/3 cup peanut butter (or cookie butter)
·
1/2 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
Instructions
1. Place potato in a smal
pot, cover with water, and boil until very tender. Drain and transfer to a
large bowl. Mash (or use a hand mixer) until smooth and lump-free.
2. Add 4 cups powdered sugar
and mix until blended (will be a sticky mess and this point). If opting to use
vanilla, mix in now. Mix in more powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, until mixture
is very thick (slightly thicker than cookie dough).
3. Lay down a large sheet of
wax paper and sprinkle generously with powdered sugar. Transfer candy mixture
to the wax paper and sprinkle the top with more powdered sugar. Roll out to 1/4
inch thick rectangle.
4. Spread peanut butter
evenly over candy. Roll tightly (long side toward long side), then wrap in the
wax paper. Cut in half crosswise and put the two halves inside a large
resealable bag. Seal the bag and chill for at least 30 minutes until firm, or
until about 30 minutes before ready to serve.
5. Unwrap candy and slice
into 1-inch thick slices and serve or store in airtight container, chilled, up
to 2 weeks.
