Step 1

In a small bowl, mix together your mayonnaise, and sour cream. Make sure the two are completely combined and then add half of the chives, cheese, and pepper. Taste mixture to see if you prefer some salt. Let chill in fridge for a bit.. Meanwhile, peel and cube your potatoes into bite size pieces. Put in a large pot, cover with water, and boil until fork tender. About 20 minutes.

When potatoes are ready, drain and let them cool just a bit.( let them cool a lot if you plan to serve it chilled) Put potatoes in a large bowl or dish and combine with sour cream mixture. Fold in most of your crumbled bacon. Top with remaining half of chives and remaining crumbled bacon.
