Start by ensuring your leftover mashed potatoes are creamy and free of lumps. Microwave them for 30 seconds if cold.

In a large mixing bowl, combine mashed potatoes with cheese and beaten eggs. Add seasonings and mix well.

Roll small portions of the mixture into balls about the size of a golf ball.

Coat each ball in breadcrumbs by rolling gently until fully covered.

Bake at 375°F for 25 minutes or until golden brown, turning halfway, or fry for 3-4 minutes per side.

Allow puffs to cool on a paper towel-lined plate for 5 minutes before serving.
