I wanted to thin out some of my cookbook collection so I decided to place some of my favorite recipes here. This is from the Amish Friends cookbook. This candy recipe contains a surprise ingredient . . . mashed potatoes. Note: This recipe won a first-place ribbon at the Malheur County Fair in Ontario, Oregon. It also won the grand prize in the candy division. Time to make does not include chill time. Ingredients:
1/2 cup warm mashed potatoes (mashed with milk only) |
1 tablespoon shortening |
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar |
7 drops peppermint extract |
dark sweet chocolate, melted |
Directions:
1. Beat first 4 ingredients until smooth. Add additional powdered sugar if needed to reach desired consistency.
2. Shape into patties and freeze. Coat patties with melted chocolate while frozen.
