Cheesy Mashed Potato Muffins

Ingredients

3 cups chilled mashed potatoes
1 large egg
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup chopped chives
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, for rolling
Cooking spray or butter for greasing

Directions

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and grease a mini muffin pan with cooking spray or butter.

In a large bowl, mix together the chilled mashed potatoes, egg, shredded cheddar, chives, flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls, then roll each ball in grated Parmesan cheese to coat.

Place the coated potato balls into the cavities of the prepared muffin pan, gently pressing down to form a puff shape.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and crisp on the outside.

Let them cool for a few minutes before removing them from the pan. Serve warm.
