Irish Potatoes

Okay I am totally a day late with this one!  Yesterday I made these with my Daisy troop and they had a great time.  I think they enjoyed licking their fingers when we were done the most. 

You cannot have St Patty's Day without Irish Potatoes for dessert!

2 Cups Sweetened, Flaked Coconut
2 Cups Powdered Sugar
4-5 Tbsps Light Cream or Half and Half
Cinnamon

Place coconut and powdered sugar in a bowl.  Adding the cream 1 tbsp at a time, use your hands to mix everything together.  The mixture should be slightly wet but still workable.  Roll the mixture into 1 inch balls.  Take the balls and roll them in cinnamon (placing the cinnamon in large somewhat flat bowl works best).  Makes about 25 potatoes.

Keep refrigerated.
