Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
Place potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour. Remove from oven.
When potatoes are done remove them from the oven and allow them to cool for 10 minutes. Raise oven temperature to 400 degrees. Place bacon on the same sheet that potatoes were on, and bake until browned, between 10-20 minutes. Remove and place bacon pieces on a plate lined with paper towels to drain and cool. Crumble into small pieces and set aside. Reset oven temperature back down to 350 degrees.
After potatoes have cooled 10 minutes, slice the potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh (leaving about ¼” of the flesh still inside) into a large bowl. Save the skins. Add sour cream, milk, butter, salt, pepper, ½ cup of cheese, ½ of the green onions to the scooped out potato. Mix with a hand mixer until well blended and creamy. Spoon the mixture into the potatoe skins. Top each with remaining cheese, green onions, and bacon.
Place back into the oven and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
