Twice Baked Potatoes
by half-n-half
Hi! I must say that me and my family nd potatoes very…
appealing
. (Sorry for the puns, I have to
chip
in! ) We have
always LOVED them! Whether it’s in soup, poutine, mashed, grilled, or but into fries/chips they will be eaten! There is
really no replacement or imi
tater
! Especially since they have been around for a while, they have deep
roots
! They honestly
just make you
peel
better! In fact I
yam
probably made of them! Hey, you can’t blame me! It’s a hug in your tummy! This
recipe is creamy goodness, shall we
starch
?

Step 1: You Say Potato (Poe-tae-toe) I Say Potato (puh-taht-oh)
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Wash and dry your russet potatoes. Hopefully you
hash
enough! Anyways, use a knife or fork
to poke holes all around. Put the potatoes in the oven for 1 hour. At least, that’s what I
tot
would work best!

Step 2: That’s Shallot of Butter!
Meanwhile, start this
grate
step
!
Grate your shallot! I am very sorry… I never thought that shallots could be as strong as
onions and make me cry so much! BUT… I have a tip! Wear sunglasses, that way you can protect your eyes AND look cool
at the same time! I know it’s
shallot
to take in! Add to a mixer bowl. Melt and add your butter. Mix together! :)

Step 3: The Spicy Herb-itat

Step 4: Is Cream Really Sour? I Thought It Was Pretty Nice!
Add your sour cream, heavy cream and milk to the mixture. Mix it together! We always need it to
whip
into shape! :)

Step 5: Garlic+ Cheese= …garlicheese?
Peel your garlic skin o. Sometimes it will look bare because it doesn’t have any
cloves
on. Mince the garlic and add to
the mixture! Add you Dijon. Grate your cheese and add to the mix. I’m really sorry if these puns are getting too
cheesy
.

Step 6: Can You Fry to Stop the Puns?
When your potatoes are cool enough to touch, slice in half. Don’t cut o the ends though, we wouldn’t want it to be
deca
potatoe
d!With a knife, trace an oval around the inside of the potato, be careful to leave at least a centimeter of
structure away from the skin. We want it to not be imsy, that way we can put the lling in it! With a spoon, start from the
edge of the potato and scoop the insides out into the bowl mixture.

Step 7: Throwing All the Ingredients in Causes Quite the Stir!
When your potato is in the mixture, mix it up! Do this until all big chunks are gone, it shouldn’t be smooth… slightly
lumpy!
