Cheesy Mashed Potato Puffs
These cheesy mashed potato puffs are a fantastic way to use up leftover mashed potatoes, turning them into crispy, bite-sized snacks. They’re soft and fluffy on the inside while the outside becomes deliciously crunchy. Rolling each puff in Parmesan before baking creates a savory crust similar to a fried potato croquette, but without the extra oil. The result is something between a classic tater tot and a gourmet potato pancake.
