My thoughts:
Three years agone I posted a recipe I created for Irish Gaelic Gaelic Potato Candy a procedure made inwards Philadelphia to coincide with St Patrick's Day. The candy isn't made with potatoes simply rather is a coconut candy that is formed to concur dorsum like freshly picked novel potatoes. It is rarely works life outside of the Philadelphia/New Jersey/Deleware area inward improver to so if you last further afield, it is neat to concur upwards able to construct your receive at home.While I honey coconut (obvi) inward improver to that candy is truly delicious (especially if you took my proffer inward improver to mixed cocoa inwards with the traditional cinnamon coating), at the 4th dimension inward improver to inwards the years since I've had a few people inquire if at that topographic point was a coconut-free version available. Without coconut, the candy would simply concur upwards a plainly buttercream, which slice tasty, would construct for a pretty bland candy, inwards my opinion.
Anyway, I was thinking nigh making a batch of the master copy re-create version when it came to me that I could easily construct a peanut butter version. It was simply as tasty as the original recipe simply with a more than crowd-pleasing peanut butter inward improver to chocolate flavoring. I chose to locomote along a flake of cinnamon inwards the mix as a nod to the master copy re-create candy simply postulate cocoa would operate as well. Very peanut buttery inward improver to the sweetness is tempered by times the dusting of cocoa inward improver to cinnamon.
Serious Eats has a behind the scenes concur dorsum at the master copy re-create Irish Gaelic Gaelic white patato candy manufacturing works life that is worth a read.
