- Using a sharp knife, make crosswise cuts in each potato about a 1/2 inch apart, (you want to make about 4 -5 cuts in each potato) stopping about 1/4 inch from the bottom of the potato. *Do NOT cut right through.
- With a butter knife, add a dab of the margarine (or butter) onion soup mixture between each slice, dividing evenly between all slices in all potatoes.
- Wrap each potato in aluminum foil (shiny side in) and place on a cookie sheet, as they may leak a little.
