Process of preparation of a basis

Usually, the potato "Potato" at home is made using purchased shortbread cookies (such as "Jubilee"). However, such a dessert can have a rather pronounced flavor of this sweet product. Therefore we propose instead of biscuits to use sweet or unleavened crackers. They can be purchased in ready form in the store, and you can make them yourself from buns.

Thus, the dried flour products should be crushed several times in a meat grinder or in a blender until very fine crumbs are formed. If it is large, then the homemade cake "Kartoshka" will not be as beautiful and appetizing as a similar shop item.

But before that they should be thoroughly washed, dried, lightly fried, and then lightly chopped with a stupa or rolling pin.

Formation of dessert

As a result of mixing all the ingredients, you should have a dark chocolate mass that easily takes on the desired shape. Cake "Potatoes" in the home is desirable to do in the form of balls (for this, one needs to take 1-2 small spoons of finished mass). After that dessert is recommended to roll in either cocoa powder, or in coconut shavings, or in grated chocolate. When all the cakes are decorated in the right way, they should be laid out on a flat plate, and then sent to a cold store for 3-4 hours. There they will cool slightly, become more firm and elastic.
