Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash the fingerling potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Cut each potato in half lengthwise.
Place the halved potatoes onto a baking sheet. Drizzle them with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and lightly golden.
While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the blue cheese filling. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the blue cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, and 1 tablespoon of the chopped chives. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Using a small spoon, gently scoop out a small portion of potato from the center of each half to create a well. Be careful not to scoop too deeply, leaving enough potato for structure.
Fill each potato well with the blue cheese mixture, using a spoon or piping bag for precision.
Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the filling is warm and slightly melted.
Remove the potatoes from the oven, transfer to a serving plate, and garnish with the remaining chopped chives.
Serve warm and enjoy your elegant Blue Cheese Stuffed Fingerling Potatoes!
