Preparation

Step 1

PREHEAT oven to 350°F. Bake potatoes 1 hour or until tender. Let stand 5 min. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise; scoop out centers, leaving 1/8-inch-thick shells.

MASH potatoes in medium bowl. Add cheese, milk, butter, salt and pepper; beat with electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. (If potatoes are dry, beat in small amount of additional milk.) Stir in chives and bacon; spoon evenly into shells. Place in shallow baking dish.

BAKE 30 min. or until heated through. Garnish with additional chopped chives, if desired.

Use Your Microwave

Pierce potatoes; place on paper towel. Microwave on HIGH 9 to 10 min. or until tender, turning over and rearranging every 4 min. Prepare recipe as directed except for baking. Microwave on HIGH 2 to 3 min. or until heated through, turning dish after each min. Sprinkle with additional chopped chives, if desired.
