Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Prick potatoes several times with a fork and place onto a baking sheet.
Step 2
Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 30 minutes.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, filling is heated through, and top is lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
Step 4
Lay potatoes on their sides and slice off the top third. Use a spoon to scoop out all of the flesh from both potatoes and tops; place flesh into a large mixing bowl. Return emptied potato shells and tops to the baking sheet.
Step 5
Add softened butter to potato flesh. Mix on medium to high speed with an electric mixer until well combined. Mix in sour cream, salt, and pepper.
Step 6
Set four shrimp aside; roughly chop remaining shrimp. Stir chopped shrimp and Cheddar cheese into potato mixture until combined; spoon into potato shells, molding it high. Spoon any filling overflow into potato tops. Slice four reserved shrimp in half lengthwise; place two pieces on top of each filled potato.
