Loaded Baked Potato Soup Recipe
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
- 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 cheddar cheese, salt and pepper and stir until cheese is melted.
- Serve and enjoy!

Fantastic soup, I can't wait to try it! Great post guys.
My question is: Baked potatoes, precooked, what does that mean exactly? Do I boil the potatoes first and then bake them in the oven?
Hi., Thanks for stopping by. The recipe was originally developed to use left over baked potatoes. You can bake them and use them right away too. Hope that helps! Enjoy and let us know how it goes.
The Fully Loaded Cheesy Baked Potato Soup caught my eye! Pinning it!!
I love this recipe, but it has changed from what I remember. It originally instructed you to start with the bacon in the pot first and go from their. Also their use to be pictured instruction to follow step by step.
I love this recipe, but it is not as I remember it. The recipe use to start off with the bacon first and go from their. Also their were well pictured step by step instructions to follow, what happened?

What page does not exist? I checked the links and they are working fine for me. Maybe you should try it again. Thanks!
You have outdone yourself on this recipe! It was easy and a crowd pleaser. Loved by all of us!
can you make in advance and freeze?
Can you freeze the soup or does it not work because of the sour cream and cheese?
Hi Susan!
It would not hold up very well in the freezer because of the sour cream and cheese. I hope this helps!
