Help. They kept falling apart and sticking to the bottom of the skillet, so I sprayed a 9x13 pan with cooking spray and baked them in the oven. They tasted great, but the kids really wanted potato pancakes. Any tips on how to cook them in a skillet without sticking & falling apart? - 10/4/10

Very good for left over mashed potatoes. I noticed, however, that cheese is listed as an ingredient. It was not added into the mixture section. Was that a mistake? I did not add cheese to mine. - 9/5/09

My mom used to make this. I tried to repeat it, then checked for a recipe to get the nutrition values. Here it is! They are great! Just like mom used to make. - 1/24/09

My husband never eats leftovers. I made these with the leftover potato from last night. I used onion powder instead, added garlic, and used spicy jack for cheese. IT WAS AWESOME - 12/30/08
