Best Twice-Baked Potatoes

Super Good! However, please bake the potatoes initially, rather than microwave. It will make them sturdy enough to contain the goodness without falling apart! Rub with olive oil and kosher salt and bake at 375 for an hour or more until done. Don't overbake or they'll wrinkle. I also used Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and topped them with chives, which makes them healthy, right? :-)

I made this along with rib eye steaks for my husband%u2019s church board Christmas party. I received so many compliments. I was told more than once that "this was the best twice baked potato I have ever eaten". I did do a couple of things different, I didn't cook potato in microwave because I think the taste is better in oven I also didn't cook potato all the way through i.e. instead of 1 hr cooking time I only cooked for 45 min. this makes sure the potato skin does not fall apart while digging pulp out. I also used sea salt instead of table salt and I added cheese and bacon to potato instead of putting on top. But I did put cheese on top of potato after cooking through. These are wonderful. These also have a wonderful presentation.

Absolutely awesome!!! I did bake the potatoes as becky716 suggested. Followed the rest of the diretions other than added green onions (green parts only) to the mix. What a great potato. Lots of flavor and oh so good!!! Thanks for sharing. Will be making again and again.

Yummy! I made these the day before christmas, stuffed them, and put them in the fridge. The next day I put them back in the oven for about 30-45 minutes while the ham finished cooking. Perfect!

Finally success! I tried making these potatoes once using larger potatoes and I don't think they cooked long enough because the inside filling ended up really lumpy, hard to remove from the shell, and not creamy I was bummed but they were edible, I decided to give it another go. The second try was perfect I use a bit smaller potatoes which I rubbed w/olive oil and tons of sea salt before baking and also set them directly on the oven rack the skins ended up just as flavorful as the inside, Thank you LorenLou!!

Very good recipe for the stuffing! Thanks for sharing. I prefer baking the potatoes in the oven rather than microwaving.

Excellent Potatoes!!! I baked the potatoes in the oven for 1 hour, increased the cheese to about 3/4 cup and doubled the bacon, put 1/2 in the potatoe mixture and the other half on top. Absolutely Delicious!!!

My mom used to make these when I was younger. I forgot how good they are! And so easy, too!

1 guest told me these were the best potatoes he's ever had! I agree! Not easy getting potatoes out of the shell without tearing the skin, but it was worth the effort.

I admit I only did this recipe part way and it was really good. I did not use the sour cream, milk or bacon because I did not have those on hand, but it was very good. Next time I will do it as written. It can only get better. The concept of twice baking is a great way to jazz up potatoes with little effort.

These were very good, I didn't do a very good job scooping the pulp out without ripping the skin so when I put it back together to bake it had spread out of its shell during baking. But still tasted great! Thanks for the recipe

The flavor on these potatoes was outstanding. I didnt read the recipe correctly and only cooked the potatoes in the oven for 45 min so they werent cooked enough, but I will correct that for next time. I cut two potatoes in half lengthwise and scooped the insides out for the filling. Yum yum!

My whole family loves these. In fact, my 9 year old just requested these for her birthday dinner. Thank you for the great recipe!

My first attempt at twice-baked potatoes--and to think I could have been enjoying these little beauties for years! One of them was a complete meal for me. I made them as stated and I will continue to use this great recipe to make them in the future!

I've made a recipe similar to this for years but decided to try something a little different and I'm so glad I did. These are so good! The only things I did differently was to use seasoning salt in place of the salt and pepper and I didn't have sharp cheese so I used mild cheddar. I also mixed part of the bacon into the mix and put the rest on top with some extra cheese.

These were yummy. My husband disllikes sour cream so I subbed it out (added in a little extra of the other moisture ingred to still make it creamy). I also stirred the bacon into the mix, instead of putting it on top. Very good.

Had these last nite...and YUMMM! I used unsalted butter instead of the margarine. I added the milk gradually, til it was the consistency we like, maybe only 1/8th of a cup. Also added some Montreal Seasoning to the tater mixture, so left out the salt and pepper. I froze half of these on a baking sheet, then after 2 hours, transferred to freezer bags. Can't wait to have these again. Thanks for posting, LorenLou.
