There are few things in life better than twiced baked potatoes. I could eat them all day, everyday, but they take soooo long to make. So now I only make them on "special occasions". (Picture courtesy of The Girl Who Ate Everything!)
Ingredients:
4 large baking potatoes
8 slices bacon
1 cup sour cream
1/4 to 1/2 cup milk
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
8 green onions, sliced, divided
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Bake potatoes in preheated oven for 1 hour.
3 Meanwhile, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
4. When potatoes are done allow them to cool for a few minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a large bowl leaving about 1/4 inch of flesh so the potato maintains it's shape; save skins.
5. To the potato flesh add sour cream, butter, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup cheese, 1/2 the green onions, and milk
6. Mix with a hand mixer until well blended and creamy. Spoon the mixture into the potato skins. Top each with remaining cheese, green onions and bacon.
7. Bake for another 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
