Mashed Potato Puffs

Servings: 12 puffs

Ingredients:

2 cups mashed potatoes (cold leftovers work best)

2 large eggs

½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, parmesan, or your favorite)

¼ cup milk (or heavy cream for richer puffs)

¼ cup green onions or chives, chopped (optional)

¼ tsp garlic powder

¼ tsp salt (adjust based on mashed potatoes' seasoning)

¼ tsp black pepper

½ cup cooked, crumbled bacon (optional)

Butter or cooking spray (for greasing the muffin tin)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Set to 400°F (200°C). Grease a muffin tin with butter or cooking spray.

2. Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine mashed potatoes, eggs, cheese, milk, green onions, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well mixed.

3. Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the mixture into the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.

4. Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden and crispy.

5. Cool & Serve: Let them cool slightly before removing from the tin. Serve warm, with sour cream or your favorite dipping sauce.
