Perfect Potato Cakes

I got the basis for this recipe from a friend and tweaked it a bit to fit my taste. There's just something about these potato cakes that makes them better than the best!! I think its a combo of the bread crumbs and the butter flavor Crisco. All I know is these are super for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a snack! I love 'em! And they are so easy!!
