Instructions
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425ºF. Pierce potatoes all over a fork. Place in 13x9 inch baking dish. Roast 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until potatoes are tender. Remove from oven and reduce oven temperature to 375ºF.
- Once cool enough to handle, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scoop flesh from skins and place in baking dish. Coarsely chop 3 of the potato skins and add to the baking dish along with flesh. Add cream cheese, sour cream, garlic, onion, salt and pepper to potato mixture. Mix well using a large fork or potato masher to combine evenly. Stir in half of the bacon and half of the Cheddar and Swiss cheese. Cover dish with foil.
- Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until edges are bubbly. Remove foil and sprinkle with remaining bacon and cheese. Bake, uncovered, 15 minutes longer, until heated through and cheese is melty and lightly browned. Let rest 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with sliced green onions or chopped chives, if desired. For a spicy twist, sprinkle with crushed jalapeno pepper.
