These special potatoes are a hit with my whole family, from the smallest grandchild on up. I prepare them up to a week in advance, wrap them well and freeze. Their flavorful filling goes so nicely with juicy ham slices. -Marge Clark, West Lebanon, Indiana

Cheesy Stuffed Baked Potatoes Recipe

Prep: 1-1/4 hours Bake: 20 min.

Yield: 6 Servings

75 20 95

Ingredients

3 large baking potatoes (1 pound each)
1-1/2 teaspoons canola oil, optional
1/2 cup sliced green onions
1/2 cup butter, cubed, divided
1/2 cup half-and-half cream
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
Paprika

Directions

Scrub and pierce potatoes. Rub with oil if desired. Bake at 400° for 50-75 minutes or until tender. When cool enough to handle, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scoop out pulp, leaving a thin shell; set aside.
In a small skillet, saute onions in 1/4 cup butter until tender. In a large bowl, mash potato pulp. Stir in onion mixture, cream, sour cream, salt and pepper. Fold in cheese. Stuff into potato shells.
Place on a baking sheet. Melt remaining butter; drizzle over potatoes. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 375° for 20 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 6 servings.

Editor's Note: Potatoes may be stuffed ahead of time and refrigerated or frozen. Allow additional time for reheating.

Made these with Easter dinner. What a hit. They begged for more. So easy... so good. Now an Easter "Tradition"

I have made these many times. One of my favorite ways to serve a special side to company. So convenient to make ahead of time.

I have made these potatoes several times now. They are so good. We usually just use 2 servings and freeze the rest - they are great for a weeknight meal.
