Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Scrub the potatoes thoroughly and pierce each one several times with a fork. Rub the potatoes with olive oil and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the potatoes for 45-50 minutes until they are tender and the skins are crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly until they can be handled.
Reduce the oven temperature to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Cut the baked potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, leaving a thin layer of potato attached to the skins. Place the scooped potato insides into a large mixing bowl.
Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or fork until they reach your desired consistency. For a smoother texture, use a hand mixer or potato ricer.
Add the butter, sour cream, and milk to the potatoes and mix well until creamy. Stir in the green chiles, 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully combined.
Transfer the potato mixture into a greased 9x13-inch casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese over the top, followed by the crumbled bacon.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the casserole from the oven and garnish with sliced green onions.
Let sit for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Twice Baked Potato Casserole with Green Chiles!
