Cheesy Stuffed Baked Potatoes

Ingredients:

3 large baking potatoes (1 pound each)
1-1/2 teaspoons canola oil, optional
1/2 cup sliced green onions
1/2 cup butter, cubed, divided
1/2 cup half-and-half cream
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 cup Kerrygold shredded cheddar cheese
Paprika

Method:

1. Scrub and pierce potatoes. Rub with oil if desired. Bake at 400° for 50-75 minutes or until tender. When cool enough to handle, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scoop out pulp, leaving a thin shell; set aside.
2. In a small skillet, saute onions in 1/4 cup butter until tender. In a large bowl, mash potato pulp. Stir in onion mixture, cream, sour cream, salt and pepper. Fold in cheese. Stuff into potato shells.
3. Place on a baking sheet. Melt remaining butter; drizzle over potatoes. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 375° for 20 minutes or until heated through.
