Twice Baked Potatoes Recipe

Wash and prick potatoes with a fork several times. Place on a paper towel and heat in the microwave on full power 8 to 10 minutes or until soft. Remove from the microwave, and allow to cool several minutes.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Heat a small skillet over medium heat and add the bacon. Cook until crisp, turning once. Transfer bacon to paper towels and blot to absorb excess fat. Set aside.

When potatoes are cool enough to touch, cut in half lengthwise. Scoop out the potato flesh and place in a bowl, leaving about 1/8 of an inch of potato flesh all the way around the potato skin.

Add the sour cream, salt and pepper to the potato flesh. Mash with a fork until smooth.

Mound several spoonfuls of the potato mixture back into each potato shell. Top with shredded cheese.

Place the stuffed potatoes on a baking sheet and bake in preheated oven 5-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Sprinkle with crumbled bacon and serve.
