Loaded Baked Potato Soup

Pure comfort in a bowl. Is what this rich, thick and
cozy soup is. If you love loaded baked potatoes,
like myself than this is for you.

Loaded Baked Potato Soup
9 baking potatoes
2/3 cups of butter
2/3 cups all purpose flour
6 cups whole milk. "or more if you'd like it thinner
salt and pepper
1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
4 green onions
10 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
1 (8oz) container sour cream.

1) Place potatoes on a baking sheet and cook until done.
Let cool before scooping.
2) In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter.
Stir in the flour and cook about a minute. Whisk in milk
a little at a time, stirring constantly until thickened. Stir
in potatoes, salt, pepper, 1/3 cup of bacon, 2 tablespoons
of green onions and most of the cheese. Cook until
thoroughly heated. Stir in sour cream and heat through.
Serve topped with remaining bacon, onions, cheese and
a little sour cream. Enjoy!
