Ingredients

½ teaspoon salt

1 ½ cups shredded mild Cheddar cheese, divided

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

½ cup sour cream

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon dried chives

2 large baking potatoes

½ pound lean bacon

¼ cup milk

½ teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.

Step 2

Use a toothpick to poke a few holes into each potato.

Step 3

Bake potatoes in the preheated oven until fully cooked, about 1 hour. Cool for about 15 minutes.

Step 4

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate; crumble and set aside.

Step 5

Cut a thin slice from one side of each baked potato; carefully scoop out flesh and transfer to a large bowl. Discard skins.

Step 6

Mix 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese, sour cream, milk, butter, chives, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper into potatoes until well combined.

Step 7

Spread potato mixture into the prepared casserole dish; top with remaining Cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven until just bubbling, 10 to 15 minutes. Cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.

Editor's Note:

This recipe can be made a day ahead of time. Prepare through Step 7. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and refrigerate. To reheat, bake casserole, still covered with foil, in a 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for about 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until cheese is melted and bubbly, about 15 minutes more.
