Twice Baked New Potatoes

First off, they aren't really twice baked, but that is just what we call them. I often make these to take to parties and they are usually gone in about 2.7 seconds. Tasty, portable, and a good base for those of you who will be - ahem - tipping a few. I don't make them fancy or twirly or piped - these are rustic chunky looking little fellas. Mr L is thrilled that the theme initiated a sudden midweek new tater incident.
