Equipment
- Oven
Ingredients
- 2 potatoes
- 1 oz cheddar cheese in small slices
- 1/2 cup gouda cheese, grated

Instructions
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly. Leave them unpeeled, making sure there are no green spots or sprouts.
- Now cut the potato into thin slices, but be sure to not cut all the way through! The potato should stay in one piece ("Hasselback" style).
- Gently place the small cheddar cheese slices between each slit of the potato.
- Now sprinkle the grated cheeses on top, and bake in the oven for 45-60 minutes at 350°F.
- Before serving, add a dollop of sour cream and fresh chives.
