Instructions

  1. Chocolate: Add chocolate to a glass mixing bowl. Bring a small pot of water to a simmer, then set the bowl of chocolate over the boiling pot (the bottom of the bowl should hover over the water but not touch it). Stir constantly until the chocolate chips have melted, then remove the bowl from above the water.
  2. Mix: In a large bowl, stir together melted chocolate, mashed potatoes, vanilla, and salt. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes until firm.
  3. Roll: Roll tablespoon-sized portions into balls, then roll in your desired coating.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. I find storing them in single levels helpful so they don't become squished.
