Repeat, using all the pastry. Taking each small square, drop a small amount of the mashed potatoes in the center. Enclose the square and dip into egg wash. Repeat. Place knishes on baking sheet and bake until brown. Remove and let cool. Continue until all the mashed potatoes are used, or you have enough knishes. Knishes can be frozen for at least a week, reheat in the oven for best results.
