Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Wash and dry the potatoes. Poke each potato several times with a fork.
Rub the potatoes with olive oil, then sprinkle them evenly with salt and black pepper.
Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a knife.
While the potatoes are baking, prepare the filling. Chop the spinach and drain and chop the artichoke hearts into small pieces.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the spinach for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, cooked spinach, artichoke hearts, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and milk. Mix until smooth and creamy.
When the potatoes are done baking, carefully remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Slice each potato lengthwise down the center and gently scoop out the flesh, leaving about 1/4 inch of potato intact to create a shell.
Mash the scooped-out potato flesh in a bowl and stir it into the spinach-artichoke mixture.
Carefully stuff the potato shells with the spinach-artichoke mixture.
Place the stuffed potatoes on a baking sheet and top each one with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the potatoes from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and serve warm.
