Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Prick potatoes several times with a fork and place onto a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 30 minutes.
- Slice off the top 1/3 of each baked potato. Use a spoon to scoop out all of the pulp from the potatoes and the tops, and place in a large mixing bowl. Set the emptied potato shells and tops onto a baking sheet.
- Add softened butter to the potato pulp; mix on medium to high speed until well combined. Then blend in sour cream, salt, and pepper.

Add any overflow that won't fit into the top pieces. Slice 4 remaining shrimp in half lengthwise and arrange 2 pieces on top of each filled potato.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, filling is heated through, and top is lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp have a sweet, briny flavor that is perfect for stuffing. Avoid frozen shrimp, which can be tough and bland.
- Make sure the shrimp are deveined. Deveining the shrimp removes the digestive tract, which can be gritty and unpleasant to eat. You can devein the shrimp yourself using a sharp knife, or you can buy them pre-deveined.
- Use a variety of fillings. The blue cheese filling in this recipe is just one option. You can also stuff shrimp with crabmeat, lobster, vegetables, or even fruit.
- Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cook quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Overcooked shrimp are tough and rubbery.
- Serve the shrimp immediately. Shrimp are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that they are hot and juicy.
Conclusion:
Blue cheese stuffed shrimp is a delicious and elegant appetizer or main course. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create a dish that will impress your guests.
