Irish Potato Candy (Keto, Low-Carb, Gluten-Free)

Irish Potato Candy

I've been making the sugary version of this for years, but here is my healthier reduced-sugar version that tastes just as good! You can present them in a little paper bag and they look just like a sack of mini potatoes! Happy Paddy's Day!🍀🍀🍀🍀 Only 2.3g net carbs each.
