I got about a dozen out of this. I think 30 is if you want small ones .. mine where medium sized. I didn’t cool down the potato’s .. I mashed and added a bit of marg and milk and cheese. After that it seemed to cool right down on it’s own. Then I added the rest of the ingredients but left out the parsly.
