Press 1 round in bottom and up side of each of 24 ungreased mini muffin cups (edges of dough will be higher than side of cup); prick bottoms with fork. Bake 6 minutes.

With potato masher or fork, mash potatoes, leaving some small pieces. Add 1/2 cup of the cheese and 1/4 cup of the green onions to potato mixture; mix well. Spoon 1 tablespoon potato mixture into each cup.
