    Title: Homemade Smiley Fries
    Categories: Potatoes, Breads, Vegetables
    Yield: 8 servings

    2 c Mashed potatoes, w/o added
    - milk & butter
    1/2 c Dry bread crumbs
    2 tb Cornstarch
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Garlic powder
    1/2 ts Onion powder
    1/4 ts Pepper
    Oil for frying
    Ketchup, mustard and ranch
    - dressing; opt

    In a large bowl, stir together potatoes, bread crumbs,
    cornstarch and seasonings until smooth. On a lightly
    floured surface, roll out mixture to 1/4-in. thickness.
    Cut with a floured 2" round cookie cutter, rerolling
    scraps. Using a drinking straw, poke 2 circles into each
    round for eyes. Then use a spoon to make a mouth.

    In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat 1/2" oil to
    350oF/175oC.

    Fry rounds, a few at a time, until golden brown, 1-2
    minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels; sprinkle
    with additional salt to taste. Serve warm, with sauces
    as desired.
