Ingredients
- 6 large russet potatoes (about 5 lbs)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter

- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup cheddar cheese divided
- 1 tsp salt adjust to taste
Toppings
- 1 cup cheddar cheese

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Wash the potatoes and prick them all over with a fork. Place them in the preheated oven and bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F.
- Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh into a large bowl.
- Add the butter, half & half, and sour cream to the potatoes, then mash them up. Add one cup of cheese, season the mixture, and stir to combine.
- Transfer the potato mixture to a greased 9x13 inch casserole dish. Add the bacon and remaining cheese on top.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake at 350°F for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional five minutes, or until the top is nice and golden. Garnish with green onions and enjoy!
