Ingredients

  • 6 medium russet potatoes (about 8 ounces each)
  • 6 medium sweet potatoes (about 8 ounces each)
  • 2/3 cup sour cream, divided
  • 1/3 cup 2% milk
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 tablespoons minced fresh chives, divided
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt, divided

Directions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400°. Scrub russet and sweet potatoes; pierce several times with a fork. Place in foil-lined 15x10x1-in. pans; bake until tender, 60-70 minutes. Reduce oven setting to 350°.
  • 2. When cool enough to handle, cut a third off the top of each russet potato (discard top or save for another use). Scoop out pulp, leaving 1/2-in.-thick shells. In a bowl, mash pulp, adding 1/3 cup sour cream, milk, cheese, 2 tablespoons chives and 3/4 teaspoon salt.
  • 3. Cut a thin slice off the top of each sweet potato; discard slice. Scoop out pulp, leaving 1/2-in.-thick shells. Mash pulp with remaining sour cream, chives and salt.
  • 4. Spoon russet potato mixture into half of each russet and sweet potato skin. Spoon sweet potato mixture into other half. Return to pans. Bake until heated through, 15-20 minutes.
