Directions
Norwegian Potato Doughnuts,When I was a little girl my grandfather, who was a full fledged Norwegian, used to make mashed potato donuts for us on those special times when we got to sleep over at my grandparents house. These donuts and wearing angel jammies (my grandfathers white T shirts) are 2 treasured memories of Boppa. This recipe tastes very much like what I remember his tasting like. Prep time includes chilling time.,When I was a little girl my grandfather, who was a full fledged Norwegian, used to make mashed potato donuts for us on those special times when we got to sleep over at my grandparents house.
