Steps:
- Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Scrub the potatoes, pat dry, and pierce several times with a fork. Set them directly on the oven rack and bake until very tender, about 1 hour. Let cool completely on a cooling rack.
- *Cook's Note: Sharp cheese works well in this soup because it melts smoothly. Extra sharp will give you a more pronounced flavor but because of the lower moisture content, the soup will be less smooth.

- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the chopped leeks, onion, carrot and garlic. Saute the vegetables; stirring occasionally, until they are glossy and have started to soften - about 5 minutes.

Ladle in about a quarter of the hot liquid from the soup and stir with a sturdy wooden spoon until the cheese has completely melted and is fully blended inches Carefully pour the cheese mixture back into the saucepan and stir until fully incorporated.

Turn off the heat, taste the broth, and adjust the seasonings if necessary with a little more salt and pepper. Ladle the soup into heated bowls.

Steps:
- In large pan combine potatoes, onion, celery, bouillon, and enough water to cover; boil until tender. Add the butter.
- Add pepper gravy to the milk and stir well. Add to the soup mixture. When it thickens up, add the crumbled bacon and cheese. Stir the soup until the cheese melts. Serve.
Tips:
- Use a good quality cheddar cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. Look for a sharp or extra sharp cheddar that is aged for at least 6 months.
- Don't overcook the potatoes. They should be tender, but still have a little bit of a bite to them. Overcooked potatoes will make your soup gummy.
- Add the milk and cream slowly. This will help to prevent the soup from curdling. Heat the milk and cream in a separate saucepan over low heat, then slowly whisk them into the soup.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You may also want to add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little bit of heat.
- Serve the soup hot with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, green onions, and chives.
Conclusion:
Cheddar potato soup is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious bowl of cheddar potato soup that your whole family will love.
