Ok, this post is 2 years old... but it's nearly Halloween, so why the hell not?
Pumpkin Potato Candy
Ingredients:
1 medium potato
powdered sugar
peanut butter
Preparation Instructions:
Peel and boil potato then mash and add enough powdered sugar to make it stiff, on wax paper roll with rolling pin to a thin layer. Now spread peanut butter on it and roll like a jelly roll.
My grandma used to add food coloring somehow... I searched, found nothing... but i'm sure you could easily swirl in some orange food coloring... Before rolling it up, you can add some chocolate, shredded coconut, crushed almonds/nuts, etc...
Then cut it so that it's cookie-shaped... you could throw some candy dots on for the eyes n nose, and use an icing tube filled with chocolate/frosting to draw a mouth. You could use half of a mini-stick pretzel for the stem, and then throw it in the fridge until it's stiff n cold... You could also scratch the pumpkin idea n make little devils with pretzel horns...
I dunno, I just pulled the second half of that out've my ass.

Sounds good though, think i'm gonna try it out this year... If anyone happens to try it n vomits their guts out, you had ample warning...
