• 6 large baking potatoes
• 1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
• 1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
• 3/4 cup butter
• 2 scallion stalks (chopped)
• 4 cooked bacon slices (chopped)
• salt and pepper to taste
• 3 slices American cheese

Preheat oven to 350Ëš F (175 degrees C). Bake potatoes for 1 hour or until soft. Cut enough of the skin off the top of each potato to be able to scoop the potato out of the skin and into a mixing bowl. Add sour cream, shredded cheese, butter, scallions and bacon. Mix together well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Fill the skins with the mix and top with 1/2 slice American cheese. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes just until heated through.
