Ultimate Twice-Baked Potatoes

Ingredients

• 4 large baking potatoes
• 8 slices bacon
• 1 cup sour cream
• 0.5 cup milk
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon pepper
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
• 8 green onions, sliced, divided

Instructions

1. Gather ingredients and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Bake potatoes in the preheated oven until tender, about 1 hour, depending on the size of your potatoes. Set potatoes aside until cool enough to handle.
3. Meanwhile, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble, and set aside.
4. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a large bowl; save skins.
5. Add sour cream, milk, butter, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup cheese, and 1/2 of the green onions to the potato; mix with a hand mixer until well blended and creamy.
6. Spoon the mixture into the potato skins; top each with remaining cheese, green onions, and bacon.
7. Return potatoes to the preheated oven and continue baking until the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. Serve Hot!
