Crispy Baked Boursin

Ingredients
  

  • 5 Russet Potatoes
  • 2 packages Garlic & Herb Boursin
  • 3 TBSP Salted Butter
  • Flaky Maldon Salt
  • Freshly Cracked Black Pepper
  • 1/3 CUP half & half or heavy cream
  • 1/3 CUP minced chives plus more for garnish
  • 3 strips of cooked bacon chopped
  • EVOO

Instructions
 

  • Scrub and clean potatoes, and preheat oven to 400 degrees
  • When clean, grab a baking sheet and olive oil. Drizzle and rub olive oil all over the potatoes until well-coated. Then, sprinkle and pack Maldon flaky salt on all sides of the potatoes. Crack black pepper over the top and roast for about an hour or until fork-tender
  • Remove from the oven and let cool until cool enough to touch
  • Next, slice the potatoes completely open or carve out an oval shape on the top of the potatoes - but either way, carefully scoop out the insides and put into a bowl. Make sure you leave some of the potato attached to the shell
  • Add in butter, half & half, and Boursin then using a mixer, whip up
  • When mixed well, add in bacon + chives. Mix again until whipped and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add another splash of cream if needed to thin out the consistency
  • Spoon the potato mixture into the shells, and place back into the oven to roast for another 15 minutes or so. I like to broil for 1-2 more minutes to get some added color at the end but keep an eye to make sure they don't burn
  • Take out of the oven, top with fresh chives, and serve!
