[rec.food.recipes] REQUEST: Potato Candy

Steinar.Haug@elab-runit.sintef.no (Steinar Haug) (03/08/91)

i used to help my grandmother make wonderful candy out of primarily
mashed potatoes, peanut butter, and sugar.  the mashed potatoes were
mixed with the sugar and rolled out, then the peanut butter was mixed
with sugar and put on top, then the whole thing was rolled like a jelly
roll, sliced, and put in the fridge for a while until it set.
unfortunately she never wrote recipes down.  my mother thinks she has
the recipe, but she uses a tame black hole as a recipe filing system
and i don't expect her to find it any time soon.  has anyone else got a
recipe like this one?  i miss that stuff a lot, and was hoping to make
some to stick in lunch bags (gets a little mashed up but it still
tastes great).

thanks in advance!
