How to Make Million Dollar Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and scrub 4 large russet potatoes. Lightly rub with 2 tablespoons olive oil.
- Bake potatoes directly on the oven rack for 1 hour, or until easily pierced with a fork.
- Remove potatoes from oven and let cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, carefully cut potatoes in half lengthwise.
- Using a spoon, gently scoop out the potato pulp, leaving about 1/4-inch of potato flesh in the skins. Set the skins aside.
- In a large bowl, mash the potato pulp with a potato masher or fork.
- Stir in 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Fill each potato skin generously with the potato mixture. Sprinkle the tops with the remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned.
