Potato candy

A rolled candy made from mashed potatoes and powdered sugar.

Potato candy, also known as potato candy pinwheel, is a rolled confection made by combining mashed potatoes with powdered sugar to form a dough, then filling it with peanut butter and rolling it into a log. It does not require baking; refrigeration hardens the candy, which can then be kept at room temperature. Its shelf life is roughly one to two weeks.
