Steps:
- You need one medium potato that is baked and still warm. You can bake the potato a few ways. Rinse and dry the potato with all methods before cooking. I used a leftover baked potato that I grilled the day before. I simply cut it open and scooped out the insides once it was done and store it in the refrigerator. When I went to make the candy the next day, I reheat the mashed potato in the microwave a few minutes, until warmed.Microwave: poke the potato all over with a fork, microwave for about 5 minutes, flip potato over and cook again for 3-4 minutes, or until done.Oven: preheat oven to 400 degrees and then bake potato for 45-55 minutes until done.Air Fryer: Poke potato all over with fork, air fry at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. Check for doneness, if not done, continue to air fry for abouthe 3-4 minutes, or until done.Grill: Preheat grill to Medium to Medium-high, depending on your grill. Wrap potato in foil and place on grill. Grill potato for 45 minutes, turning every 15 minutes. Check by poking a fork into foil-wrapped potato, if not done, continue cooking for a few more minutes.
- Once your potato is cooked, cut in half and scoop out the insides while the potato is still warm. Place potato in large bowl. Mash very well. If you are using the vanilla flavoring, this is the time to add it (1/2 teaspoon). I did not use it as the recipe I used doesn't call for it, but many other recipes do or even almond flavoring.
- Depending on the size of your potato, you may need to add more powdered sugar. Add in the powdered sugar, one cup at a time and mix well until the dough is stiff but workable. It will become difficult to stir with a wooden spoon. Using clean hands, you can better incorporate the sugar into the dough, if needed. I used the entire 2 pound bag of powdered sugar, as my potato was bit larger than I thought.
- At this point, refrigerate for at least 1 hour to stiffen the dough.
- Once the dough has chilled, place a silicon baking pad on a large cutting board (can also use parchment paper). Sprinkle a little powdered (confectioners' sugar) on the board; this will help the dough not stick to the pad. Using a rolling pin, roll the chilled dough into a large rectangular shape, approximately 1/4-inch thick. Add additional powdered sugar if dough gets too soft.
- Spread the top of the dough with 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter.
- Roll up the dough into a jelly roll shape (just like making cinnamon rolls). Roll up in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours.
- After the chilling time is up, slice the chilled rolls into approximately 1/2-inch pieces. Store candy covered in the refrigerator; bring to room temperature to serve.

MASHED POTATO CANDY
This is great for using up left over mashed potatoes. Everyone loves it, especially kids. There are other potato candy recipes here, but none even close to this one that I've seen. My mom use to make this at Christmas all the time. This is very popular in the PA Dutch area. Prep and cook time is based on leftover mashed potatoes. Note: Instant potatoes don't work well.

Steps:
- 1. The main ingredients for this old fashioned candy are mashed potato and confectioners sugar. You can use any flavor you want and even add peanuts, coconut, chocolate, maraschino cherries and wrap dough around them. In a mixing bowl combine the potato, salt, and vanilla.
- 2. Sift the confectioners sugar over potato, stirring and adding about 1 cup at a time. Mixture will liquefy when first sugar is added then gradually begin to thicken.
- 3. Mix in your add-ins (like chocolate chips, coconut, etc).

- 5. Shape in the size of balls you want.
- 6. Heat a pan of water about 2-3" deep keeping it a low temp set a pan on top and add your chocolate chips, stir until melted.
- 7. Add 1 - 2 tbsp shortening to thin it down enough to dip the balls in and coat. If it begins starts to thicken add a little more shortening.

- Cut potatoes into slices or chunks and place in large cooking pot. Cover with water, and place the lid on.
- Bring to boil over high heat. Reduce temperature to medium and cook for about 15 - 20 minutes, or until fork tender. You'll want them nice and soft so they are easier to mash without having lumps.
- Meanwhile, as you're waiting for your potatoes to cook, you can prepare the brown butter. Place 3 Tbs. salted butter into a saucepan or small skillet. Melt over medium heat, and continue cooking until it smells nutty and looks slightly browned. It may continue browning a bit more after removing it from the heat, so keep your eye on it. You don't want it burned.
