human: Can you give me a good cake recipe that incorporates potatoes?

assistant: Certainly! Here's a delicious recipe for a Chocolate Potato Cake that combines the moistness and richness of potatoes with the sweetness of chocolate. This cake is unique and sure to be a hit at any gathering.

Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup mashed potatoes (made from about 2 medium-sized potatoes, cooked and cooled)
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or a 9-inch square baking pan.

2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

3. In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

4. Stir in the mashed potatoes, making sure they are well combined with the butter mixture.

5. In a small bowl, mix the whole milk and vanilla extract. Then, alternatively add the milk mixture and the dry flour mixture to the butter-potato mixture. Begin and end with the flour mixture, mixing just until combined.

6. Gently fold in the semisweet chocolate chips.

7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

8. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

9. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Optional: Once the cake has cooled, you can dust it with powdered sugar or spread your favorite frosting on top. Enjoy your Chocolate Potato Cake!

human: I have no milk, what to do??

assistant: Hmm lets try something else then, what about mashed potato cakes? here is the full recipe if you wish to try it:

Ingredients:

2 cups of cold leftover mashed potatoes
1 whole egg
¼ cup of all-purpose or self-rising flour
2 tablespoons of finely diced onions (optional)
Instructions:

To your mashed potatoes, add the egg and mix up really well.
Then add the flour and stir it up really well with a fork until well blended. It will be very thick and sticky. You can also add some finely diced onion or green onion at this point as well.
Heat just a little bit of butter or oil (about two tablespoons of either vegetable oil or olive oil, it doesn’t take much) in the bottom of a large skillet and place over medium heat for two to three minutes, or until hot. This is important because if you don’t heat your oil first, your potato cakes will be greasy.
Scoop out heaping spoonful's of potato mixture into the hot oil. Dip the back of your spoon into the oil and then press down with it onto the mashed potato patties to flatten them a bit.
Fry until browned and then carefully flip them over and brown on the other side.
Once they are golden brown on both sides, remove them to a paper towel-lined plate and eat up
