Irish Potato Candy is a classic candy recipe with cream cheese and coconut that is coated in cinnamon, or sometimes coated in high quality cocoa powder.
Add in salt and then slowly add in 4 cups powdered sugar, about a half a cup at a time.
Mix in the coconut flakes.
In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and one tablespoon powdered sugar.
Form teaspoon size balls or potato-shaped ovals and then roll the balls in the cinnamon mixture. Place candy on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour to set.
