Soft Baked Potato Cakes

Peel and boil 6 potatoes, and add 4 beaten eggs, 1 TB salt, 1/2 lb butter, 1 TB baking powder, 1-1/2 c flour. Mixture should be stiff enough to knead. Roll out 1-1/2" thick and cut with biscuit cutter. Placed on greased or sprayed cookie sheet. Bake 1 hour at 325, turning often. Serve with butter and slice like a muffin.

This was a recipe from my North Dakota uncle, Ed Bowers, who has been in heaven for at least 50 years, so I know if he is reading this he'd wonder what in the world I meant by "spraying" a cookie sheet!
