Black Angus’ Baked Potato Soup

This is one of my family's favorite soups. I have no idea if it is actually from Black Angus but it sure is tasty!

4 large baked potatoes
2/3 c. butter 1/2 tsp black pepper
2/3 c. flour 1/2 tsp white pepper
6 c. milk 3/4 tsp salt
12 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
4 gr. onions, chopped
1-1/4 c. cheddar cheese, shredded
8 oz. sour cream

Cut baked potatoes in half length-wise; scoop out pulp and set aside.
Melt butter in heavy saucepan over low heat; add flour, stirring until smooth. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add milk, and cook over med. heat, stirring constantly until mixture is thickened and bubbly. Add potato pulp, salt, peppers, 2 Tbsp green onion and 1 cup cheese. Cook until thoroughly heated but do not boil. Stir in sour cream; add extra milk, if necessary, for desired consistency.
Serve with bacon, remaining green onions and cheese and small dollop of sour cream. Yummy!

Note: You can add half of the bacon to the soup with the green onions and cheese but I don’t like soggy bacon. ;-)
