These potato buns are delightfully soft yet chewy at the same time, coated with a shiny honey butter glaze. They're the perfect way to use up any leftover mashed potatoes from the holidays. If you don't have leftover mash, I also show you a quick 5 minute mashed potato shortcut. This dough is so versatile. Turn these into the best burger buns by skipping the honey glaze and adding sesame seeds. Recipe at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzcmDjpA-_A&t=32s
