A twist on two classics. Came up with the idea one night when we couldn't decide on potato skins or twice baked potatos.

How To Make stuffed potato skins

Step 1

Scrub potatos really well. Bake at 425 degrees for 50-60 minutes or till tender.

Step 2

After about 30 minutes preheat oil to 350 degrees.
Step 3

When potatos are cool to handle. Slice in half. Scoop out centers, leaving a 1/4 inch thick shell.
Step 4

Fry shells in oil till golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels salt both sides.
Step 5

Arrange skins in a baking dish. Add a sliver of butter to each shell. Sprinkle with garlic powder.
Step 6

In a mixing bowl mash the potatos, then add sour cream, milk, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and shredded cheese. Mix well.
Step 7

Fill shells with potato mixture. Bake 25-30 minutes until heated thru. Place half a slice of cheese on each potato. Return to oven for another 2-3 minutes till cheese is melted.
