Steps:
- Prick washed potatoes and bake in a preheated 400 degrees F oven until a fork pierces to the center easily. Remove potatoes from oven and allow to fully cool. Remove skin and cut potatoes into 1/2-1" cubes. Set aside. Melt butter in a large saucepan. Add onions and saute over low heat for 10 minutes or until onions are translucent. Don't allow onions to burn. Add flour to onions and butter and cook 4 - 5 minutes, stirring well until flour is absorbed. In a separate container, combine water, chicken base, potato flakes and seasonings. Stir or whisk thoroughly to eliminate lumps. Add slowly to onion mixture, stirring constantly so no lumps form. Increase to medium heat and continue cooking until the soup begins to gently simmer. Add milk and cream, stirring until smooth and lightly thickened. Simmer for 15 minutes. Do not boil. Soup should just simmer lightly. Add cubed baked potatoes and stir to combine. Remove from heat and serve. Top each serving with grated cheddar cheese, sliced scallions and bacon pieces.

Tips:
- For a creamier soup, use heavy cream or half-and-half instead of milk.
- Add a cup of cooked diced chicken or bacon for a protein-packed soup.
- Stir in some chopped fresh chives, parsley, or green onions for a pop of color and flavor.
- Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
- If you don't have a potato masher, you can use a fork or a spoon to mash the potatoes.
- To make the soup ahead of time, cook the potatoes and bacon according to the recipe. Then, let the soup cool completely and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the soup over medium heat until warmed through.
