Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon butter
• salt to taste
• 4 large baking potatoes
• 2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions
• 0.5 cup milk
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.25 cup half-and-half
• 0.5 cup half-and-half
• 0.75 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange potatoes on a baking sheet.

Step 2

Bake potatoes in the preheated oven until tender, about 1 hour.

Step 3

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in small pot over medium heat. Add green onions; cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in flour until well blended, about 1 minute. Pour in milk and 1/2 cup half-and-half gradually, stirring sauce constantly. Season with salt and cook until sauce is thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 4

Cut a slice from the top of each baked potato and scoop the pulp into a bowl. Mash pulp until no lumps remain. Add 1/4 cup half-and-half and 1 tablespoon butter; blend together with an electric mixer. Stir in 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and pepper until fully combined.

Step 5

Fill baked potato skins with the mashed pulp mixture; make a well on top of each potato. Fill wells with onion sauce. Sprinkle 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese on top.

Step 6

Turn on the broiler. Return stuffed potatoes to the oven and broil until golden brown; about 15 minutes.
