Boil the potatoes until soft and peel them. Mash them with a potato masher or ricer and let cool. Now beat the eggs and sugar until frothy. Gradually add the remaining ingredients and mix well until a thick batter forms. Place about 1 tablespoon of the batter in the center of a wafer and place it on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Preheat the oven to 175°C (top/bottom heat) and bake the gingerbread for about 15-20 minutes. If you can’t manage to eat the gingerbread while it’s still warm, you can let it cool and then cover it with chocolate or icing.
