Yummy soup!

My friend Missy gave me this recipe for potato soup & it's so yummy I had to share!

Baked Potato Soup

6 potatoes (or 4 large potatoes)
8oz sour cream
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
6 cups milk
1 1/2 sticks butter
2/3 cup all purpose flour
salt & pepper to taste
Green onions & bacon pieces (optional)

Bake your potatoes at 400 for 1 hour or until done. (I didn't scrub them or wrap them... just stuck em in a pan & put em in de oven)
Let cool.

In a large pot on medium heat melt the butter. Add flour, stir well & cook for about 1 min. Then add the milk. Let cook, stirring frequently until mixture is bubbly & it thickens. Turn heat to low and add cheese, sour cream, salt & pepper. Scoop out the insides of the baked potatoes & add to mixture. Stir frequently until heated through.

Garnish with green onions & crumbled bacon pieces if desired.

I am making this for dinner next weekend! I can't wait. It looks SO yummy. My mom makes a fabulous potato soup, but I can never quiet duplicate it, so I have been looking for one of my own. It's no fun to cook your mom's recipe and always be disappointed.
