3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup grated muenster cheese
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
3 to 4 tablespoons horseradish
1/4 cup sour cream

Brush both sides of the potato skins with 2 tablespoons melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Arrange skin-side up on a baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mash the potato flesh with a fork; mix in the cheddar, muenster, parmesan, 2 tablespoons horseradish and the remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter. Stuff into the potato skins, return to the oven and continue baking until golden, about 8 minutes.
  • Mix the sour cream with the remaining 1 to 2 tablespoons horseradish. Spoon on the potato skins and sprinkle with the scallions.
