Snow-Whipped Potato Boats

6 large baking potatoes
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
4 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Wash potatoes and rub skins with vegetable oil.  Bake for 1 hour, or until potatoes are fork-tender.  Remove potatoes from oven and reduce oven heat to 350 degrees.

Cut a slice from top of each potato and scoop out pulp.  In a medium bowl mash pulp with a fork, then stir in sour cream, milk, salt, pepper and green onions.  Whip until fluffy.  Fill potato shells with mixture and sprinkle with grated cheese and crumbled bacon.

Bake 10 minutes.
