Baked potatoes just got better with my Loaded Broccoli & Cheese Twice Baked Potato!
How good are twice baked potatoes?! I haven’t had one in years but had a craving to create my own this week after reading the latest Food Network Magazine.
So glad I did, what a treat they were. I made a homemade broccoli and cheese sauce that gets mixed into the mashed potatoes before baking again. Seriously I died. Kick your diet to the curb for a day and indulge in these babies!
Let’s take a look at how to make em’!
Bake 4 large potatoes at 375 degrees F. until fork tender.
Cut off about 1/2 inch from the tops.
Take a knife and cut around the border of the potato leaving about 1/2 inch edge. Spoon out the centers and place into a bowl.
Perfect!
Time to get started on the mashed potatoes that will go back into the baked potato shells.
A little butter, salt, pepper, garlic salt and milk. Simple.
For the love of this broccoli cheese sauce. No words…other than use the leftovers as a soup!
I added 1 cup of the broccoli cheese sauce to the mashed potatoes then scooped it all back to the baked potato shells.
Oh yah 🙂
Top with cheese please and bake. You’re welcome 🙂

This looks soooooo good! Love the cheese 🙂
Twice baked potatoes freeze great just let them cool down and put them in the freezer before the second bake. I like to make extra since there are so much work and then you have a nice treat when you are in a rush.
I don’t even like potatoes really, but these look fantastic!! Loooove!
Oh wow, this looks so wonderful!
I love twice baked potatoes! And you can never go wrong with broccoli and cheddar!

This looks like an amazing treat! Just looking at the photo makes my mouth watery.
Yeas, please. I don’t know why we never makes these at home.
It states 1 cup of shredded cheese twice in the directions. Is this a misprint, or are there supposed to be 2 seperate cups?
Hi Jade, 1 cup of the cheese is for the cheese sauce and 1 cup is for topping before baking 🙂
Why am I not living inside your mouth?
SO simple, but SO crave-worthy! Must make this 🙂
Oh yum!! These look delicious!! I love baked potatoes! So filling and they’re still a veggie, right?! YUM!

Hello! I pinned this a while ago and finally made it tonight. But the potatoes were not done after an hour and 20 minutes, is that normal? And when I scooped out the insides, it was so hard, it didn’t get creamy so the inside had chunks of potatoes, isn’t that right? I never had this problem with potatoes before so maybe I just need to go up in temp. I was just curious if they were supposed to be underdone like that. Thanks!!
