Ingredients

  • 2 large Russet baking potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons butter softened
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon crumbled
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Rub potatoes with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and poke a few times with a fork.
  • Bake for about 50 minutes or until a knife slides easily into the center.
  • Cool for 10-15 minutes.
  • Cut potatoes in half and scoop out the center leaving about 1/4 inch around the sides.
  • Mash potatoes, butter, sour cream and milk together using either a potato masher or mixer (I used my Kitchen Aid mixer).
  • Stir in half the cheese, half the onions and half the bacon.
  • Fill potato cups.

  • Top with bacon and onions and serve hot!
