Potato cake

Potato cake in its original version was conceived as a sweet imitation of the root vegetable of the same name. The cakes themselves are molded from a light biscuit mass, and then rolled in cocoa powder to achieve the effect of a thin skin . For complete similarity, add eyes made of cream - for example, butter.
