Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry potatoes and prick 5-6 times with fork. Bake approximately 1 hour or until soft. Cool completely, then slice in half and remove pulp for the soup, leaving some pulp in chunks.
Melt butter in large pot over low heat; sauté onions five minutes. Add flour and cook and stir (this mixture will be very thick) about 10 minutes.
Slowly add chicken broth a little at a time, stirring constantly until thickened and bubbly. Next, gradually add milk. Bring to a boil, then add potatoes, sour cream, and 1 cup cheese.
Reduce heat and stir gently until cheese melts. Taste and season with the salt and pepper, then add the bacon (or reserve it for topping).
Garnish with more cheese and chives or green onions, if desired.
