Make this Loaded Baked Potato Soup Recipe in just 20 minutes, packed with all the best creamy, cheesy, and savory flavors and textures!
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup sour cream
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 3 pounds baked potatoes precooked
- 8 ounces shredded sharp white cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 teaspoon black pepper
Toppings
- 6 slices thick cut bacon precooked and crumbled
- 3 ounces shredded mild cheddar cheese
- chopped chives
Instructions
- Warm a large stock pot over medium high heat. Add butter to pot. Once butter starts to melt, whisk in flour.
- Slowly and gradually pour in chicken stock, while whisking continuously. Continue whisking as you incorporate sour cream and cream cheese. Whisk until mixture comes together.
- Slice baked potatoes in half and scoop out the flesh, then add it to the pot.
- Using a potato masher or wooden spoon, smash the potatoes until desired consistency is reached. I like my soup kind of chunky. Add sharp white cheddar cheese, salt and pepper and stir until cheese is melted.
- Top with crumbled bacon, mild cheddar cheese and chives. Serve and enjoy!
