TWICE-BAKED POTATO WITH GOAT CHEESE AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven; preheat to 375°F
• Rub oil over potatoes. Place directly on oven rack; bake until very tender, about 45 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool 10 minutes.
• Using oven mitts, grasp 1 potato in hand; cut potatoes in half. Using spoon, scoop out potato, leaving 1/4-inch-thick shell. Repeat with remaining potatoes.
• Transfer potato flesh to large bowl.
• Place potato shells back on baking sheet and return hot oven while preparing filling so they will give a nice crispy shell.
• Mash potatoes until smooth. Mix in cheese, then Buttermilk, butter, and chives, Fresh rosemary and Beacon Bits if desired, season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Spoon about 3/4 of potato mixture into shells, dividing evenly. Transfer remaining potato filling to pastry bag fitted with large decorative tip. Pipe filling atop potatoes; place potatoes on baking sheet.
• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 375°F.
• Bake potatoes until filling is heated through and tops brown, about 20 minutes.
