  • Scoop out the potato flesh: Use a spoon to scoop out the potato flesh, leaving a thin shell.
  • Mash the potato flesh: Use a fork or potato masher to mash the potato flesh until it is smooth and creamy.
  • Add your desired fillings and seasonings: Stir in your favorite fillings and seasonings to the mashed potato flesh. Some popular options include butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and marshmallows.
  • Stuff the potato shells: Spoon the mashed potato mixture back into the potato shells.
