Prick the potatoes with a fork and bake for 1 hour
Allow the potatoes cool slightly
Cut the potatoes lengthwise and spoon out the potato filling
Place the potato skins onto a cookie sheet - skin side up and brush on the butter
Bake for 10 more minutes ( this will help firm up the skins)
Fill each skin with ¼ cup of cheese and sprinkle bacon bits in each - bake on a cookie sheet for another 10 minutes ( or until cheese is completely melted)
Serve with sour cream and garnish with chives
Enjoy
