A twice baked potato is the perfect fusion between a baked potato and a mashed potato filling for a singular bite of intensely wonderful potato goodness. Whether you use a sweet, white, or yellow fleshed potato, a twice-baked spud can serve as a decadent side dish or transformed into full-fledged meal with the addition of hearty toppings like various cheeses, crispy bacon, or rotisserie chicken.

Twice Baked Potatoes With Fontina and Chives  Recipe

If you’re ready to go beyond the standard pot of mashed potatoes, we highly recommend giving these cheesy, twice-baked spuds a go for your next dinner party or holiday feast. We love the nutty-rich flavor and creaminess that the combo of Parmesan and fontina provides, but feel free to switch up the cheese to include your favorites. This recipe is easily adaptable to include whatever stir-ins you’re craving—from crumbled bacon to wilted spinach. If you want to get a jumpstart on your prep, these potatoes can be made up to 2 days in advance through step 2 of the recipe.

This is a decadent yet savory way to serve sweet potatoes. If you're expecting vegetarians, make a couple of potatoes without the bacon. One potato can be enough for at least four people, depending on its size.

Twice-Baked Sweet Potato Boats with Bacon-Pecan Topping Recipe

Every year, Williams-Sonoma holds a competition among their corporate employees for the best Thanksgiving side dishes. This recipe is adapted from Rachel Thur's winning recipe. I enjoyed it so much that I served it at Thanksgiving the following week, and everyone asked for the recipe. It must be something about the contrast of smooth sweet potatoes, salty bacon, and crunchy pecans mixed with the right amount of brown sugar. I owe you one, Rachel!
