Ultimate Twice Baked Potatoes

Here's another one of my Thanksgiving favorites. For all of you that join me at my after Thanksgiving feast, you're familiar with this yumminess. Enjoy!


Ultimate Twice Baked Potatoes

"Potatoes are baked and then hollowed out. The flesh is combined with sour cream, milk, butter, green onions and Cheddar cheese, then topped with more cheese and green onions."

INGREDIENTS:
6 large baking potatoes
½ lb. bacon
1 ½ cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
4 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
8 green onions, sliced, divided

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Bake potatoes in preheated oven for 1 hour.
3. Meanwhile, dice bacon and render bacon in skillet on medium heat until evenly brown and crispy. Drain, crumble, and set aside.
4. When potatoes are fully cooked and soft, allow them to cool for 10 minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a large bowl; save skins. To the potato flesh add sour cream, milk, butter, garlic salt, pepper, 1/2 cup cheese and 1/2 the green onions. Mix with a hand mixer until well blended and creamy. Spoon the mixture into the potato skins. Top each with remaining cheese and green onions.
5. Bake for another 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
