Have you ever wanted to impress your guests with a dish that looks fancy but is actually quite simple to make? Look no further than Hasselback potatoes. These thinly sliced potatoes are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, making them the perfect canvas for any topping. In this post, we’ll show you a hasselback potato recipe and then show you how to load them up with delicious Cheesy Bacon Dip Mix.

For the Hasselback Potato:

• 4 medium russet potatoes
• Olive oil
• Salt and pepper
• 1 stick cold butter, optional

For the topping:

• 1 Wind & Willow Cheesy Bacon Dip Mix
• 1 cup mayo
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup cooked bacon, chopped
• Fresh parsley, for garnish

Recipe Instructions:

1. Prepare the potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub the potatoes clean and pat them dry.
2. Make the cuts: Place the potatoes on a cutting board and make shallow cuts into the potatoes, about 1/4 inch apart. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
3. Roast the potatoes: Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. To create even more prominent spaces, place a pat of butter between each cut. This step is not necessary but can make your cuts stay spaced out while cooking. Place potatoes on a baking sheet and roast for 30-40 minutes, or until tender.
4. Prepare Dip: Combine Dip Mix, mayo, and sour cream in a small bowl and mix until incorporated.
5. Assemble: Once the potatoes are done, stuff the cuts with the Cheesy Bacon Dip. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese, bacon, and parsley.

Serve immediately and enjoy!

This hasselback potato recipe with cheesy bacon dip mix are sure to be a hit at your next party or family gathering. The crispy exterior and creamy interior, combined with the savory flavors of the cheesy bacon mix, make for a truly delicious and satisfying dish.
