ingredients

1 lb Simply Potatoes Traditional Mashed Potatoes
3 eggs (mostly the yolks)
2 cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
8 ounces mozzarella cheese (any cheese works but mozzarella i feel is the best)
14 fluid ounces oil (for frying)

directions

1. Mix the potatoes in with the egg yolks (i like to put just a little bit of the egg whites from one of the eggs).
2. Cut cheese into julienne strips that are about a 1/2 in long, no bigger than your thumb.
3. With your hands form the mash potatoes around the cheese into a shape that's best described as "Twinkies" shape.
4. Roll the croquet's into the bread crumbs.
5. in a large fry pan, fry in the oil until crispy brown then prepare to enjoy one of the tastiest appetizers of all time.
