Candy recipes

POTATO CANDY

1 c. of mashed potatoes (thick consistency)

6-8 c. confectioners’ sugar

1 c. peanut butter

½ tsp. vanilla

Add half of the confectioners’ sugar to the potatoes and mix well.  Mix in vanilla then add the rest of the sugar 1 c. at a time until mixture is thick (a little thicker than cookie dough). Lay down a piece of parchment paper and sprinkle it generously with confectioners’ sugar. Transfer candy mixture to the parchment paper and sprinkle more confectioners’ sugar on the top. Roll out to ¼-inch thick rectangle. Spread peanut butter evenly over candy. Roll tightly and wrap in wax paper (if necessary cut in half to fit). Cover and chill for 30 minutes until firm. Unwrap and slice into 1 inch thick slices. Serve or store in airtight container for 2 weeks.
