Baked Potato Soup

Ingredients
2 quarts whole milk
1/2 cup butter
1/2 onions, diced
5 baked potatoes
2/3 cup flour
1/2 cup cooked crumbled bacon ( I cheat sometimes and use the REAL bacon pieces in the bag)
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1 garlic cloves, minced
salt & fresh ground pepper

Garnish
diced green onions
grated cheddar cheese
crumbled bacon
sour cream

Directions
Peel and cut the baked potatoes into medium sized chunks. (This can be done a day in advance to save time).
Place butter and onions in a large pot.
Cook till onions are semi-clear.
Reserve 2 cups of milk and pour the rest in the pot with the onions.
Warm milk and while it is heating mix remaining milk with the flour, whisking till smooth.
Whisk the milk/flour mixture into the heated milk, continuing to whisk till well blended and smooth (minus the onions of course).
When milk has thickened add the potatoes, bacon, salt, pepper, and garlic.
Finally mix in the sour cream just till melted
