Ingredients:
4 large baking potatoes
2/3 cups butter or margarine
2/3 cups all-purpose flour
6 cups milk
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper (secret is to use white pepper)
4 green onions, chopped and divided
12 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1-1/4 cups cheddar cheese, shredded and divided
8 oz sour cream

Melt butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat; add flour, stirring until smooth. Cook one minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add milk; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture thickens and is bubbly.
