    This was really great, but I dont know what he was thinking when he put down 1/2 cup of milk. It needs about 1 and 1/4 cup to be evenly distributed. Other than that, its delicious!

    Made this last night as a side dish for grilled london broil (used the sweet and spicy rub from this site. There is a bit of work involved, but it all fits in the time it takes to bake a potato anyway! The sauce though either needs more milk, about double what the recipe calls for (which I did - have a TON of leftover sauce or perhaps less flour, it was too thick with the recipe as written. I also added some chopped scallions to the butter when making the roux. With the changes above, everyone loved the potatoes with the mornay, a nice change from plain sour cream if you have the time. Very filling and could be served alone as a simple supper.

    This was good, but not great. You'll need to cut down on the flour OR add more milk so the sauce doesn't wind up so thick. I made this as a side, but it's filling enough to be a meal on it's own. Had tons of sauce leftover, which was great over pasta. Won't be adding this one to the keeper box.

    Seriously, this really is the ultimate baked potato. It takes a while to bake to potato, but otherwise, it's pretty easy. And soooooo good!

    Note: I tried buttermilk instead of milk. The cheese sauce became a paste, which made it SO easy to scoop into the potato. The paste then melts into a great cheese sauce once you stick it back in the oven.

    Decided to make this tonight because I was sick and tired of the same old boring baked potato (with sour cream, butter and bacon. I didn't add the broccoli because my boyfriend doesn't like it. AMAZING!!! The mornay sauce is delicious! I used sharp cheddar instead of white cheddar and added bacon bits from Whole Foods (uncured bacon, no nitrates. Will never go back to the borning baked potato again!!!

    Made these potatoes for New Year's Eve. Overall they were very good and impressive. We used 4 very large potatoes but I think there was too much broccoli (the recipe callef for 2 heads. Also I believe mixing the cooked bacon in with the cheddar/broccoli masked the taste and crispiness of it. The bacon became a bit mushy. Next time I make these, I will put the crispy bacon on top of the potato when I sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheese to broil. This method should retain the integrity of the bacon.
