Instructions

Boil potato, peel and put into a large bowl. Mash until lump free.

Add two cups of powdered sugar to mixture. Continue to mix until sugar is combined with potato. Add in vanilla.

Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, until the mixture reaches a consistency you can mold into a ball.

Transfer to a sugared board and sprinkle with more powdered sugar. Roll with a rolling pin.

Spread with peanut butter and roll from the long side like a jelly roll.

Slice into pieces. Chill for a few hours. Enjoy!
