Categories     Christmas     feed a crowd     Thanksgiving     comfort food     side dish

Time 2h

Yield 8-10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 lb. medium sized russet potatoes, scrubbed
12 oz. bacon
1 stick butter, melted
4 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
1 c. warm milk
1/2 c. sour cream
1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. ground black pepper
8 oz. cheddar cheese
1/2 c. grated parmesan
1/4 c. chopped chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Prick each potato with a fork 3-4 times all over, then place on a sheet tray. Roast for 55 - 70 minutes until the potatoes are tender when pressed. Remove the potatoes from the oven and lower the temperature to 375 degrees.
  • Meanwhile, working in two batches, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until golden and crispy, 6-8 minutes. Let the cooked bacon drain on a paper towel lined plate. Once cool, crumble or chop into small pieces.
  • Place the melted butter, cream cheese, warm milk, and sour cream in a large bowl. Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them in half lengthwise, and scrape the flesh out of the skins and into the bowl. Tear or chop up three of the potato skins and add them to the bowl. Mash everything together with a potato masher. Fold in ½ of the bacon, ½ of the cheddar cheese, parmesan, and ½ of the chives.
  • Grease a 3-quart casserole dish with butter. Transfer the potato mixture to the baking dish. Cover and bake for 35 minutes until the edges are bubbly. Top with the remaining bacon and cheese. Bake for 15-20 more minutes until warmed through and lightly golden on top. Let rest 10 minutes, then top with the remaining chives and serve.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 12 to 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 baking potatoes, washed
3 tablespoons canola oil
2 sticks salted butter
1 cup bacon bits (fry your own!)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup Cheddar or Jack cheese (or a mix of both), plus more for topping
1 cup whole milk
2 teaspoons seasoned salt
3 green onions, sliced
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the potatoes on a baking sheet. Rub them with the canola oil and bake for 1 hour, making sure they're sufficiently cooked through.
  • Slice the butter into pats. Place in a large mixing bowl and add the bacon bits and sour cream. Remove the potatoes from the oven. Lower the heat to 350 degrees F.
  • With a sharp knife, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scrape out the insides into the mixing bowl, being careful not to tear the shell. Leave a small rim of potato intact for support. Lay the hollowed out potato shells on a baking sheet.
  • Smash the potatoes into the butter, bacon and sour cream. Add the cheese, milk, seasoned salt, green onions and black pepper to taste and mix together well. (IMPORTANT: If you plan to freeze the twice-baked potatoes, do NOT add the green onions.)
  • Fill the potato shells with the filling. I like to fill the shells so they look abundant and heaping. Top each potato with a little more grated cheese and pop 'em in the oven until the potato is warmed through, 15 to 20 minutes.

TWICE BAKED POTATO CASSEROLE



Twice Baked Potato Casserole image

Provided by Food Network

Time 2h20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 large russet baking potatoes (about 7 pounds total)
8 tablespoons (1 stick) plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
3/4 pound bacon, cooked until crisp and crumbled
1/2 pound sharp white Cheddar, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
3/4 pound mild Cheddar, grated (3 cups)
1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
3 eggs, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Scrub the potatoes well and rinse under cool running water. Pat dry with paper towels and prick the potatoes in several places with a fork. Place the potatoes in the oven and bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until tender. Remove from the oven and set aside on a wire rack until cool enough to handle.
  • When the potatoes have cooled, cut each potato in half and, using a spoon or a melon baller, scoop the flesh out of the skins, leaving as little flesh as possible. Place the potato flesh in a large bowl and add 1 stick of the butter, the sour cream, heavy cream, salt, and pepper and mash until chunky-smooth. Add the bacon, cubed white Cheddar, half of the grated Cheddar, the green onions, and eggs and mix thoroughly.
  • Butter a 9 by 13-inch casserole with the remaining tablespoon of butter and reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
  • Place the seasoned potato mixture in the prepared casserole and top with the remaining grated Cheddar. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until bubbly around the edges and heated through and the cheese on top is melted and lightly golden. Serve hot.

Tips

  • Bake the potatoes until they are tender: This will ensure that they are cooked through evenly and will help them hold their shape when you scoop out the flesh.
  • Scoop out the potato flesh carefully: Be careful not to break the potato skins, as you will need them to hold the filling.
  • Mash the potato flesh until smooth: This will help to create a creamy and fluffy filling.
  • Add your favorite fillings to the potato mixture: You can use a variety of fillings, such as cheese, bacon, vegetables, or herbs.
  • Season the potato mixture to taste: Be sure to add salt, pepper, and any other spices or herbs that you like.
  • Stuff the potato skins with the filling: Be sure to pack the filling in tightly so that it doesn't fall out when you bake it.
  • Bake the stuffed potatoes until they are heated through: This will usually take about 20 minutes.
  • Serve the stuffed potatoes immediately: They are best enjoyed when they are hot and fresh out of the oven.
