I received this recipe years ago from a friend. It's a delicious new twist to a baked potato. I recently served these potatoes to visiting relatives from Norway, and they were a big hit. I love to cook and even wrote my own cookbook several years ago. -LaVerna Mjones, Moorhead, Minnesota

I make these potatoes but I cook them on 250 degrees for about 3 hours and they come out so creamy and the bacon is crispy and perfect. Everybody comments on these potatoes and asks for the recipe!
