Irish Potato Candy

No this recipe does not have potatoes in it, but they look like little potatoes---so cute. Sooooo good. Very sweet, so you only need eat a few. Tastes kind of like buttercream frosting with coconut in it. I think I got the recipe from http://www.allrecipes.com/ cant remember.

1/4 C unsalted butter, softened
