Potato Chocolate Fudge

Ingredients

• 2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1/3 cup mashed potatoes
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pound confectioners' sugar

Instructions

1. Cook and mash a medium potato without using any seasoning, butter or milk. Measure 1/3 cup.
2. Melt chocolate and butter together. Blend into mashed potatoes with the salt and vanilla extract. Mix well.
3. Sift sugar. Add a small amount at a time, blending until no sugar is visible. When unable to mix with a spoon any longer, knead in the remaining sugar with well-buttered hands.
4. Turn out onto a board and continue to knead until mixture is smooth, glossy and pliable, buttering hands as necessary. No crumbs should remain.
5. Press into a buttered 8 inch square pan or shape into balls and top each ball with nutmeg.
