Ingredients:
1 head garlic
1 tsp. oil
4 large baking potatoes (2 1/2 lbs.)
1 c. sour cream
1/2 lb. (8 oz.) Velveeta, cut into 1/2 inch cubes, divided
1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:
Heat oven to 400 degrees.

Cut thin slice off top of garlic, discard top.  Place garlic on sheet of foil; drizzle with oil.  Wrap loosely with foil.  Prick potatoes in several places with fork.  Bake potatoes and garlic for 1 hour.

Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees.  Cut small slice off of both ends of each potato.  Cut potatoes crosswise in half.  Scoop out centers, leaving 1/8 inch thick shells.  Place potato flesh in medium bowl; mash.  Squeeze garlic out of papery shell into bowl with potatoes.  Add sour cream, 3/4 of the Velveeta and Parmesan; beat until fluffy.  Spoon into shells, mounding filling as necessary; place in shallow baking dish.

Bake 30 minutes; top with remaining Velveeta.  Bake 5 minutes or until melted.  Sprinkle with bacon.
