Preparation

Step 1

•Preheat oven to 400º F.
•Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside.
•Rub the outside of each potato with vegetable oil and season liberally with salt and pepper.
•Pierce the potatoes in a few places and place on the baking sheet. Bake until fork tender (about an hour).
•When cool enough to handle, cut the top quarter from each potato and scoop out the pulp into a bowl (leaving a 1/4-inch layer of pulp on the skin).
•Place the potato shells back on the baking sheet.
•Using a potato masher, mash the potato pulp until almost smooth.
•Add butter, sour cream and 1 cup cheddar cheese. Mash until smooth.
•Stir in the bacon and scallion.
•Season with salt and pepper.
•Spoon the potato mixture back into the shells and top with mushrooms (push them down into the potato mixture a little).
•Top with the remaining cheese and return to the oven until hot and the cheese is bubbly (about 15 minutes). Serve immediately.
