Preparation

Step 1

Scrub potatoes well and dry thoroughly. Bake in slow oven until you can pierce them easily with a fork.

Drain the crabmeat and pick it over. Cut the baked potatoes in half, lengthwise. Scoop out the potato and with an electric mixer, whip the potato, butter, cream, salt, cayenne, onion and cheese. With a fork or spoon mix in the crabmeat and refill the potato shells. Sprinkle with paprika and reheat in a hot oven about 15 minutes.

These may be made in advance, frozen and reheated in hot oven for about half an hour before serving.
