Making Cheesy Mashed Potato Puffs can be a simple yet rewarding process. Follow these steps for a delightful outcome:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet by greasing it with olive oil or using cooking spray.

2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked mashed potatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until fully combined and the mixture is smooth.

3. Shape the Puffs: Using your hands, scoop a generous tablespoon of the potato mixture. Shape it into a small ball and place it onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat this process, spacing the puffs about 2 inches apart.

4. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and crispy on the outside.

5. Cool Slightly: Remove from the oven and allow the puffs to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring to a serving platter.

6. Serve Warm: Enjoy these cheesy delights while they’re still warm for the best flavor and texture!

By following these straightforward steps, you’ll create delicious Cheesy Mashed Potato Puffs that will take everyone’s heart—and stomach!
