Double Baked Potatoes

My latest new year baked recipe experiment - yummy double baked potato. Perfect as side dish.



Ingredients:
4 large baking potatoes
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup shredded cheese, divided
bacon bits
green onions, sliced

Procedure:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Bake potatoes in preheated oven for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook until brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
When potatoes are done allow them to cool for 10 minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a large bowl; save skins.



Add sour cream, milk, butter, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup cheese and green onions to the potato flesh. Mix until well blended and creamy. Spoon mixture into the potato skins.

 Top each with remaining cheese, green onions and bacon.



Bake for another 15 minutes.
