Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 4 large russet potatoes
  • 1 cup Colby cheese, shredded
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Bake the Potatoes. Scrub the potatoes clean and pierce them several times with a fork.
  • Wrap each potato in foil and Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  •  Prepare the Filling: While the potatoes are baking, cook the bacon until crispy, then crumble and set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded Colby cheese, sour cream, milk, butter, and half of the green onions. Mix well.
  • Stuff the Potatoes. Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
  • Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides into the mixing bowl, leaving a small border of potato around the skin.
  • Mash the potato insides with the cheese mixture until smooth. Stir in the crumbled bacon, reserving a small amount for topping.
  •  Bake Again. Spoon the potato mixture back into the potato skins, mounding it slightly.
  • Place the stuffed potatoes on a baking sheet and return to the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the cheese is melted.
  • Serve. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the remaining green onions and reserved bacon.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve hot.
