Ingredients List

  • 12 slices bacon

  • ⅔ cup butter or margarine

  • ⅔ cup all-purpose flour

  • 7 cups milk

  • 4 large baked potatoes, peeled and cubed

  • 4 green onions, chopped

  • 1 ¼ cups shredded Cheddar cheese

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper


Directions

  1. Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels; crumble and set aside.

  2. Meanwhile, melt butter in a stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Gradually add flour, whisking until well-combined. Slowly pour in milk, whisking constantly until smooth and thickened.

  3. Add potatoes and onions and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

  4. Stir in crumbled bacon, Cheddar cheese, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking and stirring until cheese is melted.
