Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 c cold mashed potatoes,mash only with a bit of milk to make creamier,
4 c confectioners sugar
4 c shredded coconut, i prefer the sweetened angel flake
1 1/2 tsp vanilla

I had some trouble finding coconut cream, but I was able to use canned coconut milk instead. The Easter eggs still turned out great!
