Tammi’s Twice Baked Potatoes

Easter doesn’t seem like Easter without twice baked potatoes! Here’s my no-fail recipe!

INGREDIENTS:

4 large oven baked potatoes (wrap in foil, sprinkle with olive oil, salt and pepper and bake at 400 degrees for 60-90 minutes depending on your oven).

3/4 cup of half and half or whole milk

1/2 stick softened butter

1/2 package of Boursin (2.6 ounces)

1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup of fresh chives

Salt, pepper and a pinch of garlic salt

Optional: 2 slices of chopped bacon

DIRECTIONS:

Let potatoes cool. Unwrap and cut in half lengthwise.

Spoon potato into a mixing bowl being careful to leave a thick potato skin shell.

Add half and half (or milk), butter, Boursin, 1/2 cup of the cheddar cheese and mix on high speed.

Spoon filling back into potato skins, garnish with chives, the remaining cheddar cheese and bacon if desired.

Salt, pepper and garlic salt to taste. For me, it’s about 1 teaspoon of sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon of fresh cracked pepper and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic salt.

Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until tops are slightly brown.
