Ingredients

• 2 pounds Russet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 2 large Egg yolks
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.125 teaspoon Nutmeg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel and cut the russet potatoes into evenly sized chunks.

Step 3

Place the potato chunks in a large pot, cover them with cold water, and bring to a boil over high heat.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Step 5

Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pot. Allow the excess moisture to evaporate by placing the pot over low heat for 1-2 minutes.

Step 6

Mash the potatoes using a potato ricer or masher until smooth.

Step 7

Stir in the unsalted butter and heavy cream until fully incorporated and smooth.

Step 8

Mix in the egg yolks, garlic powder, ground black pepper, and nutmeg until combined.

Step 9

Chop the fresh chives finely and fold them into the mixture.

Step 10

Transfer the potato mixture to a large piping bag fitted with a large star tip.

Step 11

Pipe the potatoes into small mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced a few inches apart.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and crispy.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
