Scottish Macaroon Bars

Ingredients:
1 or two medium potato(s)
Icing sugar
Bar cooking chocolate
Desiccated coconut.

Instructions:
Cook potato(s) , mash and allow to cool . Mix the potatoes with enough icing sugar to make the mixture firm. Roll out to ½ inch (about 12mm) thick and cut into bars.

Coating:
Melt chocolate slowly. I used to use a glass bowl in a pot of hot water, but now I find it easier to use the microwave for around a minute, depending on quantity, checking frequently. Toast coconut on tray at 180°C, until golden brown. Coat the bars with melted chocolate then toss in toasted coconut.

Cool in the fridge before eating.

Do you add water to icing or just mix it without water? I could n't get the mixture to set allowing me to roll or cut it. Maybe too much potato
