Have you ever had or heard of a hasselback potato? It’s basically a baked potato that has tiny slits cut down it but not all the way through. Then it gets doused in melted butter or olive oil and baked to crispy perfection.

What is not to like about that?!

Hasselbacks can seem intimidating because they look a little fancy and time consuming but that couldn’t be farther than the truth. Sure, they take a little longer than a traditional baked potato but I timed it and it was only an additional 5 minutes for these mini guys.

That’s not bad to make something look a little more fun and a lot more crispy. Crispy always wins.

You know it’s going to be good when the recipe title has two of the best food words in it, loaded and mini. Let’s break this down. If something is loaded, you know it’s going to be good. Because loaded means cheese and bacon. THE END.

And who doesn’t love a mini party food or dessert?! Nobody. That’s who. Do you end up eating the same amount that you would if they were regular sized? Sure you do. But they are so cute that you don’t even notice and they always seem to taste better. You can’t argue with science.

I just love these little pop-able bites for all your holiday parties. Christmas Eve and New Years Eve apps, I’m looking at you.

Now let’s talk about the sour cream dill dip. It’s kind of ranch-like but so fresh and bright due to the fresh dill (the best fresh herb in my opinion). You could use dried dill if you can’t find fresh but the fresh stuff makes such a difference.

There’s also garlic salt and onion powder in this simple dip to bring more flavor.
