Haylee's Note:
My grandma made these every year for Christmas with her breakfast caserol. My mom has also made these several times for me at school or other such things. Everyone always loves them! They are the best!!

Question: When your recipes call for mash potatoes are you using instant mashed potatoes or real mashed potatoes. Love your blog. Thanks for sharing.

I've done both real mashed potatoes and instant, and they turn out great either way. :) Thanks for the question!
