Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 lb russet potatoes Choose larger potatoes for easier handling.
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup milk Use whole milk for creaminess.
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese Feel free to add more for a cheesier taste.
- 0.5 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 tbsp butter Melted for easier mixing.
- 1 tsp garlic powder Adds depth of flavor.
- 1 tsp salt Adjust to taste.
- 0.5 tsp black pepper Freshly ground works best.

Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Start by preheating your oven to 400°F. While the oven warms up, wash the potatoes thoroughly and pierce each one with a fork several times. Bake them directly on the oven rack for about 45-60 minutes until they are tender.
- Once baked, take the potatoes out of the oven and let them cool slightly. When they’re cool enough to handle, cut them in half and scoop the insides into a large mixing bowl, discarding the skins.
- To the bowl, add the melted butter, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, then mash everything together until smooth and creamy. Stir in the cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, reserving some for topping.
- Transfer the mixture back into the potato skins or place it into a greased baking dish. Sprinkle the reserved cheese on top and place it back in the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Garnish with chopped green onions before serving. Enjoy this warm, comforting dish with family and friends!
