| Preheat oven to 425. Pierce potatoes in several places with a fork. Microwave on High for about 12 minutes. Brush potatoes with oil. Bake until fork tender; about 20 minutes. While potatoes are baking, melt butter in a saucepan over low heat; remove from heat. Add cheese to saucepan; stir continually until cheese melts. Add sour cream; blend well. Remove potatoes from oven and pierce each with a fork to release steam. Cut a large "X" in each potato and squeeze sides and ends together to open and loosen potato pulp. Spoon cheese sauce evenly over potatoes. Sprinkle tops with green onion. | ||||||
