I have a passion for Twice-Baked potatoes but have never made them! I always believed that they were too much fuss to make at home, only ordering them when we went out. But, with this recipe, it took the fear out of failure and they turned out SO good! They were a meal in themselves. Followed the recipe exactly and added some nice crispy bacon to it that was leftover from breakfast. I wanted to add that my kid's had a great time putting this together. They were still talking about this recipe hours after dinner; that's a first! We'll be mkaing these potatoes often! A great recipe, Cupcake Princess! Made for Spring PAC 2010.

I don't really like to cook that much, but I love to bake. My favorite thing to do is bake yummy homemade cupcakes, brownies, cookies, and more. I enjoy eating bake goods as much as making them! I have a sweet Miniature Schnazer named Oliver that we adopted from the animal shelter. I like to collect old cookbooks, the oldest one I have is from 1913. My favorite magazines are Bon Appitite and Martha Stewart's Every Day Food. I just became a Certified Nursing Assistant. Around my house i'm known as the pissed off baker because when I bake you better stay out of the kitchen!!!
