Notes: This is one of many most treasured recipes in my collections as it was passed on to me by a co-worker from past years while working in Virginia. Her family used this recipe from the era of having gas and sugar stamps during the war. They would be sure to save the sugar stamps to be sure to have enough for the confectionery sugar for Christmas candy making especially for mashed potato candy. I still make this each year for my family and if I do not have any I am sure to be asked why not!
