Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
In a non-stick skillet, brown the beef, breaking up into very small pieces as the meat cooks; drain/discard grease.
Coat the potatoes evenly with the olive oil. Bake for 25 minutes or until cooked through; remove from oven; set aside until cool enough to handle.
Using a very sharp, straight-edged knife, slice each potato in half. Use a spoon to carefully scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick skin. The actual skin of these potatoes are very thin, so some of the flesh has to remain to be able to stuff potato skins). Set aside/reserve 1 c. scooped out potato flesh.
In a medium bowl, mash the reserved potatoes with the milk; add remaining ingredients for the Cheeseburger Filling; combine.
Heat oven to 400 degrees.
Place the potato skins on a baking/cookie sheet, hollowed sides up; spray lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Fill each skin with the Cheeseburger Filling.
Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes until potato edges are lightly browned. Remove from the oven; cool 5 minutes.
Top each potato skin with a dollop of Dean's Cheddar Bacon Dip.
Serve, garnished with snipped chives.
Makes 30- 10 servings.
