Potato Candy - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 Irish potato (small)
1 tsp. butter
1 lb. box powdered sugar
peanut butter

Preparation

Boil potato in jacket until tender.
Peel and mash; add the butter.
Sprinkle 1/2 box powdered sugar over waxed paper.
Work the rest of the sugar into the mashed potato.
Roll this mixture onto the waxed paper to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
Spread the peanut butter over the potato mixture.
Roll up as you would a jelly roll.
Wrap the roll in wax paper and chill for about 2 hours. Cut into slices about 1/4-inch thick.
This is an old-fashioned recipe and this candy will not keep very long.
So keep in refrigerator as much as possible.
