Irish Potato Candy image

This is a very rich candy that my mother-in-law made at Christmas. Nell had eight children, worked from her home as a "pie baker" for a greek resturant in Elwood, Indian. Not only could she bake pies, but cooking/baking was her nitch. Nell would give-a-way rich delicious baked goods for gifts to bring delight to other families....

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my candy turned out really hard. I think I might have overcooked it.

This candy was a bit too crumbly for my taste, but the flavor was good.

This candy was so easy to make and it turned out great! I used chocolate chips instead of potato chips and it was delicious.

This candy was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed this candy. The potato chips added a nice crunch and the coconut filling was not too sweet. I would definitely make this again.

This candy was so easy to make and it turned out perfect! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of potato chip. I used regular potato chips and they were a little too salty for my taste.
