Potato Candy!

Ingredients: 2 cups of powdered sugar 1 medium size potato peeled 2 cups water 1 cup peanut butter 1 teaspoon vanilla Boil the potato in the 2 cups of water until done. You can easily poke it with a fork, but not mash it.. Very carefully drain the water from the potato into a glass measuring cup, until you get ˝ cup. Empty the rest down the sink or save for making more potato candy. In a large bowl, or large stand mixer bowl on very low speed
mix powdered sugar, vanilla, and potato water 1 teaspoon at a time until it forms a dough ball. Add enough of the remaining water to make the dough plyable but not wet. Spread on wax paper, and roll out into a rectangle about ˝ inch thick. You can use powdered sugar to keep the rolling pin from sticking to the dough. Spread the peanut butter on the entire surface of the dough. Carefully roll the candy length wise until you have a “log”. Cut into ˝ inch pieces and store in airtight container. You can add chocolate chips or coconut to the peanut butter filling. You can eat the potato with any of these.... salt, pepper, ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, cheese, and butter!
