I'm not a big fan of potatoes, but these were actually really good! I'll definitely be making them again.

Not sure what I did wrong, but mine came out dry and overcooked. Maybe I should have watched them more closely.

These twice-baked potatoes were a hit! The crispy bacon and melted cheese were the perfect toppings. I also loved the addition of sour cream and chives. Will definitely be making these again.
