Steps:
- 1. Wash and prick potatoes. Bake one hour and cool.
- 2. Cut potatoes long wise and scoop out pulp. Set pulp aside. I leave a bit of potato in the skin and reserve to make baked potato skins to go along with the soup.
- 3. Melt butter on low. Stir in flour and cook for one minute.
- 4. Slowly add the milk while stirring with a whisk. Keep cooking on medium until thick and bubbly.
- 5. Add potato pulp, salt and pepper, two tablespoons of green onion, 1/2 cup of bacon and one cup of cheese. Mix well and cook until heated through.
- 6. Stir in the sour cream. Add more milk if the soup is too thick.
- 7. Serve with the rest of the green onion, bacon and cheese sprinkled on top.
