My thoughts:
Three years agone I posted a recipe I created for Irish Gaelic Potato Candy a process made inwards Philadelphia to coincide with St Patrick's Day. The candy isn't made alongside potatoes but rather is a kokosnoot candy that is formed to hold back similar freshly picked novel potatoes. It is rarely flora exterior of the Philadelphia/New Jersey/Deleware expanse in addition to therefore if y'all alive farther afield, it is bully to hold upwards able to brand your ain at home.While I beloved kokosnoot (obvi) in addition to that candy is actually delicious (especially if y'all took my proposition in addition to mixed cocoa inwards alongside the traditional cinnamon coating), at the fourth dimension in addition to inwards the years since I've had a few people enquire if at that spot was a coconut-free version available. Without coconut, the candy would but hold upwards a evidently buttercream, which piece tasty, would brand for a pretty bland candy, inwards my opinion.
Anyway, I was thinking virtually making a batch of the master copy version when it came to me that I could easily brand a peanut butter version. It was but equally tasty equally the original recipe but alongside a to a greater extent than crowd-pleasing peanut butter in addition to chocolate flavoring. I chose to locomote along a chip of cinnamon inwards the mix equally a nod to the master copy candy but guide cocoa would function equally well. Very peanut buttery in addition to the sweetness is tempered past times the dusting of cocoa in addition to cinnamon.
Serious Eats has a behind the scenes hold back at the master copy Irish Gaelic white patato candy manufacturing flora that is worth a read.
