Peel and cook potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and mash. Whip together and add eggs and egg yolks. Whip and add grated half of mozzarella cheese and half of Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Mix until smooth. Place mixture into a pastry bag with a large decorator point.
Squeeze potato mixture into the shape of a fancy cookie onto a floured surface.
