Ingredients:
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup of sour cream
- 1/4 cup of milk
- 1/4 cup of unsalted butter
- 1/2 tsp of garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp of onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped green onions (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Scrub the potatoes under cold water and pierce them several times with a fork. This allows steam to escape while baking.
- Bake the potatoes directly on the oven rack for about 45-60 minutes, until they are tender when poked with a fork.
- Once done, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly until they are manageable to touch.
- Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides into a mixing bowl, leaving a small border around the skin.
- Add the butter, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the potato insides. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Stir in half of the grated cheese, and spoon this mixture back into the potato skins.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of the filled potatoes.
- Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the tops are golden and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before garnishing with chopped green onions. Serve and enjoy!
