Chocolate Potato Candy

Potato Candy or Needhams! What are Needhams????

A Needham is a chocolate candy – dipped in dark chocolate, filled with confectioner’s sugar, butter, coconut, vanilla and mashed potatoes. Yes, mashed potatoes – it is the key element.

The vegetable tuber tempers the sweetness, and the butter and coconut adds richness. The mashed potato also makes the candy much more moist and not so sticky sweet.

Chocolate and vegetables, YES!!, two of the daily requirements.
