American cheese slices
2 c. cold mashed potatoes
Flour
1 egg
1 tbsp. water
Bread crumbs

Cut long strips of American cheese and mold mashed potato around each strip in a "log" shape. Roll each croquette in flour, then in slightly beaten egg which has been combined with 1 tablespoon water. Roll in fine bread crumbs.

These can be baked in the oven on a well-greased cookie sheet (be sure to turn at least once during baking time), fried in a small amount of shortening in a skillet, turning to brown on all sides, or deep-fat fried at 360 degrees until golden brown.
