Submitted by: Anna McNeel
(from my mother-in-law, Pat)
 
3 large baking potatoes
1/2 cup sliced green onions
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup light cream
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Paprika
 
Pierce potatoes with fork.  Bake at 400 for 1 hour and 20 minutes or until tender.  Cut potatoes in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out pulp, leaving a thin shell.  Place pulp in a large bowl.  Saute onions in 1/4 cup butter until tender.  Add to potato pulp along with light cream, sour cream, salt and pepper.  Beat until smooth.  Fold in cheese.  Stuff potato shells and place in a 9x13 baking pan.  Sprinkle with paprika.  Bake at 350 for 20 - 30 minutes or until heated through.  Makes 6 servings
