ROASTED GARLIC TWICE-BAKED CHEESY POTATOES
I saw the original recipe in a Kraft Food & Family magazine. I have used it numerous times since then, and changed it a bit to meet our tastes. Here's what we usually do. The bacon can be easily subbed with vegetarian bacon, which I do frequently for our vegetarian guests. This is a favorite for our game watching!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place each potato and head of garlic onto its own piece of foil, which should be large enough to fully wrap around the potato or garlic.
- Prick the potatoes several times one each side with a fork. Cut off the top of the garlic to expose the top of the cloves.
- Drizzle each potato and the heads of garlic with olive oil.
- Move to oven and bake for an hour. (I usually place them on a cookie sheet to prevent any oil from dripping and to make it easier to put in and out at once).
- Remove the potatoes and garlic from the oven and reduce heat to 350°F.
- Unwrap each potato and halve the short way (so they look like little cups, as opposed to a long "boat"). Cut off a small bit on each of the smaller, round ends so that they will sit up straight. Gently scoop out the potato flesh, leaving a thin edge all the way around the cup. Avoid breaking the potato skin.
- Mash the potato flesh in a medium bowl. Add sour cream, processed cheese (reserve 8 small cubes), and pepper, and beat until fluffy.
- Stuff mixture into the cups - it will be quite full, so mound on top as needed.
- Return to oven and bake for an additional 25 minutes, until heated through and cheese has melted.
- Top each potato half with a remaining piece of cheese and return for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese on top has melted.
- Garnish the potatoes with bacon and green onions before serving.

Steps:
- HEAT oven to 400°F. CUT thin slice off top of garlic; discard top. Place garlic on sheet of foil; drizzle with oil. Wrap loosely with foil. Prick potatoes in several places with fork. Bake potatoes and garlic 1 hour. REDUCE oven temperature to 350ºF. Cut small slice off both ends of each potato. Cut potatoes crosswise in half. Scoop out centers, leaving 1/8-inch-thick shells. Place potato flesh in medium bowl; mash. Squeeze garlic out of papery shell into bowl with potatoes. Add sour cream, 3/4 of the VELVEETA and Parmesan; beat until fluffy. Spoon into shells, mounding filling as necessary; place in shallow baking dish. BAKE 30 min.; top with remaining VELVEETA. Bake 5 min. or until melted. Sprinkle with bacon.
Tips:
- For perfectly crispy skins, use a combination of melted butter and olive oil to brush the potatoes before baking. This will help them crisp up in the oven and give them a golden brown color.
- Be sure to scoop out the potato flesh evenly, leaving about 1/2 inch of flesh around the edges. This will help the potatoes hold their shape and prevent them from collapsing.
- For a richer flavor, use a combination of sour cream, cream cheese, and butter to make the filling. You can also add in some grated Parmesan cheese or crumbled bacon for extra flavor.
- If you want to make the potatoes ahead of time, you can bake them and then let them cool completely. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes, or until they're warmed through.
Conclusion:
Twice-baked potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed for any occasion. They're easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them cheesy, garlicky, or bacon-y, there's a twice-baked potato recipe out there for everyone.
