These were okay. The texture wasn't that amazing - kinda mealy. I wouldn't say they were terrible, but I will try to find a better recipe. My Mom, who is a huge fan of anything mint, liked them, but nobody else loved them.

I read quite a few reviews wherree theee person states that they 'had to freeze' or 'had to refridgerate' the patties or dough before they could dip them in the chocolate. If the reiepe is read through and followed thy probably wouldn't have that problem. The reciepe says to let the patties dry overnight before dipping in cocolate. Dyr not get cold. If the candy isin't allowed to cure in the way its supposed to, how can you expect it to work out right.

These turned out great. My mixture was a bit more runny than I wanted (but it could be because I overcooked my potatos). So I added sugar, but I didnt want to oversweeten the mixture. I ended up opening a box of flaked potatos to thicken it up to a dough consistancy. I added sugar or flakes depending on whether or not it was too sweet. I also added more mint extract. I think this recipe is great. We melted andes chocolate baking bits for the coating which had a great dipping consistancy (I would highly reccomend).

4 stars for messiness/complicatedness, but they are 5 star flavor. I mixed the ingredients together and then froze them in the bowl they were in for ~2 hours! Then I formed them into patties, placed on wax paper on a cookie sheet, and froze for ~15 minutes. I used regular Smart Balance instead of shortening, so maybe that changed things a bit, but I had to add a BIT of oil to the chocolate coating mixture to make it smooth and thin enough! The patties were no where near a dippable texture, so I plopped the chocolate on top and stuck them back in the freezer; and that's where I'm storing them! I believe the reviews that say more sugar is needed, because mine was quite sticky!

Easy! Yummy! No one believed there were mashed potatoes inside... For those of you having issues with them being too soft... you might need more of the 10X sugar to make them more like a dough. Just add a little at a time until it's the right consistancy. I used a pampered chef scoop to drop them onto the wax paper. This made them uniform in size. Flattened with the back of a spoon sprayed with non-stick spray. They look (almost) professional!

This recipe was really easy and fun to make and tastes great. I was able to make 80 half dollar sized patties, but the amount of chocolate called for in the recipe only covered 20 of them and I only got that many because I made sure to thinly coat them and tapped off all the excess chocolate from each one. This would definitely be a five star recipe, but it gets a four from me for needing four times the called for amount of chocolate to finish coating all the patties.

These had a great taste, I just found it difficult to work with. I used a whole bag of sugar, wow! The chocolate was difficult to work with and had to use more then the recipe calls for. This recipe also made a lot more than 4 dozen. I don't think I'd try this again.
