Yummy! Using the microwave makes this recipe very simple. The combination of cream cheese, potatoes, and ranch dressing are scrumptious. I have no idea where this recipe came from. If you have never made twice-baked potatoes before have an extra potato on hand. Scooping the pulp out can be a little tricky and can cause the skin on the potato to break.
Ingredients:
4 large baking potatoes
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons milk
1 1/4 ounces ranch dressing mix
1 1/2 cups mashed potatoes
1/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Directions:
1. Scrub and pierce potatoes.
2. Place on a microwave safe plate. Microwave for 18-20 minutes or until fork tender. Turn the potatoes several times while cooking in the microwave.
3. Let the potatoes stand 10 minutes to cool.
4. In the meantime, combine cream cheese, milk, dressing, and mashed potatoes.
5. Cut each potato in half and scoop out the pulp leaving a thin shell.
6. Add pulp to cream cheese mixture and mash.
7. Spoon gently into potato shells.
8. Top with cheese.
9. Microwave for 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted.
