Cake "Potato" - a delicacy loved by many, starting in childhood. It can now be bought without effort in stores. But in the modern world it is almost impossible to find a natural product without preservatives. What can I say about the "Potato", cooked at home, which will taste very reminiscent of the "same" cake. Moreover, this treat has one more advantage - it is prepared very quickly and does not require baking.

Instruction manual
1
Before cooking, remove the butter from the refrigerator to make it soft. Grind cookies in a blender until fine crumbs. It can also be passed through a meat grinder or ceiling in a mortar. In an extreme case, put the cookies in a bag, put on a cutting board and walk on it several times with a rolling pin until it sparkles.
2
In a separate dish, put soft room temperature butter, condensed milk, 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder, an alcoholic drink (without it) and vanilla. Mix the ingredients with a spoon or whisk with a mixer (blender).
3
Mix the resulting chocolate cream with crumbs. It should turn out to be a thick mass, reminiscent of children's plasticine in consistency. Form them into her oblong oval-shaped cakes and put them in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

When the holding time has come to an end, remove the workpieces from the refrigerator. In a small bowl, mix the remaining cocoa powder with powdered sugar and roll the cakes in the mixture. If desired, take peanuts or chopped walnuts and decorate them with "Potato".

If you have some butter and condensed milk left, you can mix them by whipping with a mixer in a cream, and using a culinary syringe, make small roses on cakes.
