  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
Filling
  • ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup (135 g) thick-cut deli ham, diced
  • 1 ½ cups (169.5 g) mozzarella cheese, shredded, divided

Instructions

Potatoes
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 400° F. Wash each potato and pierce a couple of holes on each side with a sharp knife or fork.
  2. Coat each potato with canola oil and salt and bake for 1 hour. Potatoes should be fork-tender when done. (Depending on the size of the potatoes, cooking times may vary.)
  3. Using a sharp knife, slice the top off (horizontally) of each potato.
  4. Using a spoon, remove the center of the potato and place it into a large mixing bowl. Be very careful not to tear the potato skin. Lay the hollowed-out potato shells on a baking sheet.
Filling
  1. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
  2. To the bowl of potatoes, add butter, ham, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, chives, dry ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mash until everything is well combined.
  3. Fill the hollowed-out potato skins with an equal amount of the potato mixture.
  4. Evenly top each potato with the remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the potato is warmed through.
  5. Top the potatoes with diced pickles. Serve with sour cream for garnish (optional).
