Ingredients

  • 2 qts Idaho potatoes
  • 2 T sugar
  • 1/4 c butter
  • 1/3 c evaporated milk
  • 2 c flour

Preparation

Cook 2 quarts of potatoes in salted water until easily pierced with a fork. Mash potatoes with electric mixer (or foodmill or ricer) until completely free of lumps.

Add sugar, butter and evaporated milk. Let cool completely; refrigerate.

Knead in about 2+ cups of flour to 4 c potatoes. Roll with lefse rolling pin (best to cover it with a "stocking"); pastry cloth must be well floured.

Bake on hot lefse grill until small bubbles form - turn once.

Let lefse steam/cool between several dish towels until completely cooled.
