1 Medium sized potato
2 tb Butter
1/2 c Cocoa
1/8 ts Salt
1 ts Vanilla
2 3/4 c Powdered sugar
1/2 c Chopped nuts
Boil potato until tender. Mash. While still hot, add butter, cocoa, salt
and vanilla. Gradually stir in sugar until mixture makes a stiff dough.
Spread 1" deep in greased pan. Press chopped nuts into top of candy. Let
stand 2 hrs. to become firm. Cut into squares. Makes about 2 lb. candy.
Isn't this weird? I've never had it but I couldn't resist putting this
strange, WW II vintage recipe, into this collection! If anyone tries, I'd
sure like to know if it works!
