Here goes
You won't believe this until you try it !!!!
Food coloring to match flavor
Slowly add 10 x sugar to mashed potatoes until mixture is very stiff.
The potatoes will liquify as 10x sugar is added. Work in flavoring and food coloring as desired.
You can divide the potatoes into 1/3's if you want and have 3 flavors.
Roll into 1 inch balls and lay on wax paper.
Melt chocolate in a double boiler, taking care that no water gets into the chocolate
Dips balls in melted chocolate. Lay on waxed paper to dry at room temperature.
Store in cool dry place.

If too thick, add milk
