Best Spicy Smoked Gouda Twice Baked Potatoes Recipes

SPICY SMOKED GOUDA TWICE-BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• PREHEAT the oven to 400°F.
• PLACE the potatoes directly on the middle oven rack and bake until knife tender, fluffy on the inside, and crispy on the outside, 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. Turn the broiler to high.
• MEANWHILE, stir together 2 cups of the Gouda, the mayonnaise, sour cream, pickled jalapeños, green onion, and paprika in a large bowl.
• WHEN the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice them open lengthwise, scoop out the fluffy insides, and carefully transfer them to the Gouda mixture. Fold gently to combine.
• LAY the empty potato skins on a rimmed baking sheet and evenly distribute the potato filling among the skins, so they are almost overflowing with filling. Top each potato with a generous sprinkling of the remaining shredded Gouda.
• BROIL the potatoes until the cheese is melty and gooey, about 4 minutes. Keep an eye on them so the cheese doesn't burn. Garnish with more green onions if desired. Serve immediately.

TWICE-BAKED GOUDA-STUFFED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Scrub and dry potatoes. Rub surface with a little vegetable oil or vegetable shortening. Prick in several places with fork.
• Bake in preheated oven for approximately 1 hour or test for doneness by gently squeezing the middle of the potato, using a pot holder. If it gives in easily to your touch, it is done. Remove potatoes to a work surface.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise and allow to cool long enough to handle. Scoop out flesh with a spoon, being careful to leave shells intact (about 1/4-inch thick) and place in a bowl. Add 1 cup of the cheese, plus the sour cream, heavy cream, butter, green onion, parsley, salt and pepper to the potato flesh. Mash with potato masher or beat until just smooth with an electric mixer.
• Fill potato shells with potato mixture; sprinkle with bacon and remaining cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden. Garnish with minced fresh parsley.
