Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the potatoes on a roasting tray and bake for 45 minutes. When done, the tip of a paring knife should go through the potatoes easily.
- Slice the bacon into lardons (thin strips) and cook in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until crisp. Remove the bacon from the pot with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pot.
- Add the flour to the drippings in the pot and stir to combine. Cook, without adding color, until the flour and fat has combined, about 1 minute. Pour in the milk while you whisk to incorporate. Cook over medium heat until bubbly and thickened, stirring frequently, about 15 minutes.
- Scoop out the potato pulp from the skins and add to the milk mixture. Mash with the back of a wooden spoon leaving it a little bit chunky.
- Add the cooked bacon (leaving a little out for garnishing the soup), 1 cup of the cheese, and season well with salt and pepper. Stir until the cheese has melted. Remove from the heat.
- Ladle the soup into bowls, drizzle with sour cream (from a squeeze bottle), sprinkle with remaining bacon bits, grated cheese and chives.

Tips:

- Don't overcook the potatoes: Cook them until they are tender but not mushy. You want them to hold their shape in the soup.
- Use a flavorful broth: Chicken broth or vegetable broth are both good options. You can also use water, but the soup will be less flavorful.
- Add your favorite toppings: Shredded cheese, bacon, sour cream, and chives are all popular toppings for potato soup. Get creative and try different combinations to find your favorite.
- Make it ahead of time: Potato soup is a great make-ahead meal. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
