Directions:
Blend potatoes, cream, butter, salt, and sugar together. Chill covered overnight.
Add flour, 1 C. at a time (To prevent dough from becoming tough, do not add too much flour or handle the dough more than necessary).
Take a ball of dough (about the size of a plum) and roll it out very thin.
Cook on a heated griddle until brown spots form. Use a Lefse stick (a long stick) to turn and handle Lefse.
To keep Lefse soft, place between clean towels when removed from griddle.
Repeat this process until all dough has been cooked.
Cool. Store in plastic bags in the refrigerator.
