Como fazer Mashed Potato Candy

  1. Peel and boil 2 lbs russet potatoes until very tender. Drain well.
  2. While potatoes are still hot, mash them thoroughly with a potato masher or electric mixer until completely smooth and fluffy.
  3. In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the mashed potatoes, 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 cup light corn syrup, 1/2 cup butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 240°F (115°C) on a candy thermometer. This will take about 20-30 minutes; be patient and keep stirring to prevent burning.
  5. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly, about 10 minutes, until it's easier to handle but still warm.
  6. Generously butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  7. Pour the candy mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  8. Let the candy cool completely at room temperature, about 2-3 hours, or until firm.
  9. Once cooled and firm, cut into squares or other desired shapes.
  10. Enjoy your surprising and delicious Mashed Potato Candy! Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
