Ingredients

6 small russet potatoes
½ cup buttermilk or milk
⅓ cup sour cream
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ cup butter
1 tablespoon sliced chives or green onions
6 pieces of bacon cooked crisp and chopped or 3 tablespoons bacon bits
1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese divided
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Wash potatoes and poke with a fork. Bake potatoes in oven 1 hour or microwave until soft. Allow to cool slightly.
Slice each potato in ½ lengthwise. Scoop out the pulp of the potato leaving a ⅛” shell.
In a bowl, mash potatoes, sour cream, butter, garlic powder, salt and pepper until smooth. Add butter milk as needed to create a creamy texture. Stir in chives, bacon and 3/4 cup cheddar cheese.
Fill each skin with the mashed potato filling and top with remaining cheese.
Bake 15-20 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted.
