twice baked potatoes!

I made these for DLG's birthday tonight -- they were yummy, albeit quite rich.  I basically elaborated on the way I've watched my mom make them for years.

You will need:

russet potatoes
salt and pepper
butter
sour cream
butter
scallions
cheddar

prep:
bake potatoes about 1 hour - 1 hour 15 min at 400 F.  Remove and cut a little window in the top of the potato.  Scoop out the inside into a mixing bowl until the skin is hollow.  Place the hollow skin on a cookie sheet and salt and pepper.  In the mixing bowl mix cheddar, sour cream, scallions, butter, and salt and pepper.  I just made the amounts up - maybe like 1 tbsp butter, 1/3 cup sour cream, and I used about 8 scallions, and a lot of cheddar probably a cup shredded.  They were very rich so you could scale back ... mix in electric mixer until whipped and then stuff back into empty skins.  Bake at 375 for 20 minutes and serve immediately.
