1 pound of Idaho potatoes
1 pound of pastry flour
3 ounces of soft butter
1 whole egg
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of dry yeast
Instructions:

Third, roll out the dough into 1/3 inch thick sheet. Using a 2 inch round cookie cutter; cut as many round shapes as you can. Keep rolling out and cutting out as many round shapes until you run out of dough.
Fourth, place on a cookie sheet or flat pan the round shapes and place a 1/4 teaspoon of Nutella in the center of the shape (note: do not cover the entire shape with nutella) . Cover with another dough shape creating what looks like a nutella cookie. Seal each bonboloni with the same 2 inch round cookie cutter.
Finally, let the bonboloni raise for one hour. Then, deep fry the bonboloni at 375 degrees and flip onto the other side as they pop-up in the fryer. Remove from the fryer and drain on paper towels. To plate, place onto a serving platter and sprinkle with sugar. Serve.
