- Remove the mix from the heat and cold to room temperature. Add in the vanilla and beat till creamy and stiff. Roll the mix into balls shaped like little potatoes, about 1 1/2 inches long. Roll each ball in the cinnamon to coat, then press in pcs of nuts to look like eyes. You can also dust the potatoes with cocoa to simulate dirt.
