Idaho Potato Cake image

Potatoes in dessert? Many cooks never think of the possibility. But this delicious cake gets its moist texture from Idaho spuds. We raise them here on our farm, and our son has also developed and markets potato ice cream! -LaRene Reed, Idaho Falls, Idaho

The Idaho potato cake was good, but not great. The potatoes were a bit too soft for my taste and the crust was not as crispy as I would have liked. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

This recipe was a disaster. The potatoes were not cooked through and the cake fell apart when I tried to flip it. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a big fan of potato cakes, but this one changed my mind. The combination of herbs, cheese, and perfectly cooked potatoes was simply irresistible. I'll definitely be making this again.

This potato cake is a winner! The crispy crust and fluffy interior were a perfect combination. I added some diced ham and onions to the batter and it turned out even better. Highly recommend!
