Serves 8
1. Preheat oven to 400F. Coat baking sheet with cooking spray. Bring potatoes and enough water to cover to a boil in pot. Reduce heat to medium, and cook 10 minutes, or until soft. Drain, and mash until smooth. Stir in butter and sour cream, then egg yolks and chives. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
2. Transfer potatoes to pastry bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe 8 swirled ovals onto prepared baking sheet. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until edges begin to brown, or refrigerate until ready to use.
November 2006Cindy you can use Egg Replacer Mix. I believe egg is used as a binding agent in this recipe. :)

Sheila Yoder Baer - 2009-12-08 16:40:06Wondering if the egg yolks could be left out or if there is a good vegan alternative. Any ideas?
Cindy - 2009-12-07 18:19:42I would try using cashew cream or coconut cream and egg replacer. I think I may try this with some purple sweet potatoes!

at a glance
I always mash my potatoes with butter and sour cream. For Twice Baked, I add in the chives and grated cheese (Am. or Cheddar). I'm not vegan, but you could use soy cheese instead. I have never used egg yolks in them.
