Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Pierce the potatoes with a fork and place the directly on the oven rack, in the center of the oven. Bake for one hour. Remove potatoes from the oven.

Cut the potatoes lengthwise, opening down the center of each potato.  Scoop the insides into a large bowl, keeping about 1/4-inch shell of potato next to the skin.

Combine the potato filling, sour cream, chives, butter, cheese and salt & pepper together in a bowl.  Spoon the filling back into the potato shells {or use a piping bag}

Set the stuffed potato skins on a lined baking sheet {I use silpats}, and bake about 25 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Dig in!
