Steps:

• Place oven rack in lowest rack position heat oven to 400. Spray 12 muffin cups generously with cooking spray. Melt 4 tbsp of butter in medium skillet over medium heat. Cook onion 3 minutes or just until it begins to soften, stirring occasionally.

Carefully remove potato baskets from pan; place on foil-lined baking sheet (Potato baskets can be made 4 hours ahead).
