Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 2 medium green onions, sliced with tops (1/4 cup)
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 box (4.9 oz) Betty Crocker™ Ultimate Cheddar mashed potatoes
  • 1 cup finely chopped cooked chicken
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 cup finely crushed rippled potato chips (about 40 chips)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil

Steps

  • 1
    In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add green onions; cook and stir 1 minute. Add water; heat to rapid boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium; stir in milk and Cheese Sauce pouch until sauce is melted, about 1 minute.
  • 2
    Remove from heat; stir in Potato pouch just until well blended. Let stand about 1 minute or until liquid is absorbed. Whip vigorously with fork until smooth. Stir in chicken and egg, until blended.

    Place crushed potato chips on plate. Drop 1/3 cupfuls potato mixture onto chips; roll in chips to coat. Shape into patties about 3 inches in diameter.
  • 4
    In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook patties in oil about 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until light brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Ripple potato chips give a nice crunch to these patties, but you can use whatever you have on hand, if you like.
  • tip 2
    If you like a sauce with your cakes, try sour cream or salsa—yum!
