  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a shallow baking pan with foil.

  2. Slice off the top third of each of the baked potatoes lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the potato flesh into a medium bowl, leaving a 1/2-inch thick shell. Scoop out any potato flesh from the tops into the bowl and discard the top skin.

  3. Add butter, cream, salt , pepper , and nutmeg to the bowl of potatoes and mash until combined (some lumps are desirable). Fold in brie , bacon , and chives .

  4. Mound the mashed potatoes into the potato shells and place in prepared pans. (Potatoes may be covered and refrigerated up to 24 hours at this point. Let come to room temperature before finishing in the oven.)

  5. Bake in a 425 F. for 15 to 30 minutes, until cheese has melted and stuffing is heated through. Brown under the broiler until golden, if desired.
